Windows Mapped Drive Not Appearing
Hello Experts
I have successfully mapped a drive to \Z: see image. However, when I go explorer I can't see the mapped drive.
I'm sure there is something very simple not I'm missing.
Can someone let me know why I can't see the the Z: in explorer?
Cheers
Carlton

If you ran cmd as administrator not as the user then it will now show in explorer.
Just try cmd as the logged in user

Run the command as the user that is logged in and not as administrator.
Do you have any policies in place that hide drive letters ?
Try a different drive letter like H:

How do you run the command as the user that is logged in?

Can you open cmd as the user or it blocked by policy ?
