NCO netcdf command .exe Windows

I have multiple netcdf files, and I want to join them with NCO. I know that it should be done with ncrcat in NCO , however when I want to use this command, it returns that the command couldn't be found! (Although it can find ncecat) So I tried to install ncrcat with a command using 

ln -s -f ncrcat.exe"

that I found in multiple forums. This is not working as well. (Also I am using Windows) Has anyone experience with his ?

There is a packaging issue with NCO on Windows that we will fix in NCO 4.7.9 that causes ncrcat.exe and ncea.exe not to be installed. For now the best workaround is to copy ncra.exe to each of these executables, i.e.,

copy ncra.exe ncrcat.exe
copy ncra.exe ncea.exe

BTW Windows does not support symbolic links, so your command above will not work (also, it is malformed). Good luck!
