Creating a Mapped Drive To Make It Easy To Go To a Specific Local Folder

If you need frequent access to local files and folders, you can make things much easier by creating a mapped drive.   Once you do this, the mapped drive will show up  under "This PC" in the File Explorer. 

- Open the File Explorer on your local machine (not the one in on the server).

- Select This PC from the left pane. Then, on the Computer tab, select Map network drive. 

- In the Drive list, select a drive letter.  In the Folder box, type the path of the desired folder.

- Click Finish.

- Now open the File Explorer in your server Workspace.  You can go directly to your new mapped

  folder.

Please note:   if you're only going to access local files infrequently, you can do this without creating the mapped drive.  How?
