Mapping network drives is something we all do frequently
and they can be a great timesaver. However I have frequently wanted to
use the same process to map to locations within a file system such as
frequently used directories within my own file system. Unfortunately the
map network drive will only map to network shares. However a solution
is to make use of the DOS subst command. You can use the
command as follows to map a network drive. In this example I am mapping Z to my windows directory:
subst z: c:\windows
To un-map the drive use the same command as follows:
subst z: /D
If you have drives you always want mapping then create a batch file and run the
batch file from your startup folder.
