Elasticsearch SCCM Windows deployment

Hi everyone,
i'm having problems deploying Elasticsearch via SCCM.
During execution the setup tries to create a symlink which is working as long as i install it with a administrative user account. As soon as the setup will be run by SCCM it doesn't work because the LocalSystem account on Windows is not allowed to create symlinks (seems to be "normal" on domain joined machines).
It works as soon as i start the installation with a different user, but i don't want to have any passwords inside the script.

Has anyone ever figured out a way to solve this via the LocalSystem account?
There is a thread on reddit and the guy seems to have exactly my problem, but unfortunatly the thread doesn't have a single answer.

Thanks in advance for your help!
