After rebooting:

  • Open the File Explorer
    • This is the yellow folder icon on your Taskbar   or...
    • Click on Start Menu and type “This PC” and that will be a File Explorer



       
  • Right click on This PC, choose Map Network Drive

In Windows 11, you may need to choose "Show more options" to see the Map network drive... choice.

  • Select the drive letter you want to use.  Choose any letter for the network folder that is currently not in use: -  see below image where L: could be an option




Copy and paste into Folder the following:


\\naslan\


Add the Share name after this 

In the Folder type: \\naslan\ShareName   (replace "ShareName" with the actual name of the shared drive you are trying to map.)

\\naslan\SHARENAME

  • You can choose to reconnect to the folder every time you sign in so it's always available to you.
  • Confirm your selection and click Finish.
  • When you're done, you should see the new drive letter under This PC and will be able to access its contents like you would any other folder.
