Windows: A required privilege is not held by the client.

[mrfranta]

During creation of appimage in windows system is used os.Symlink . Unfortunately this requires admin rights on Windows without developer mode:

Maybe it would be nice to add some condition to have possibility to use this tool without admin rights (restricted by company):

app-builder/pkg/package-format/appimage/appLauncher.go

Line 80 in dbedea0

err = os.Symlink(iconRelativeToStageFile, filepath.Join(stageDir, iconFileName))

It could be some env. variable e.g. Solution is to use window command mklink with "/J" (Junction) parameter.
