A user wants a shared folder on the company file server to appear in File Explorer with its own drive letter each time they sign in to Windows 10. Which Windows networking feature should the technician configure?
Mapping a network drive assigns a shared folder (for example, \SERVER\SHARE) to an available drive letter such as Z:. The Map Network Drive wizard in File Explorer-or the net use command or a Group Policy Drive Maps preference-creates the persistent connection so the share shows up like a local drive every time the user logs on. Changing the IP address, proxy settings, or wireless configuration will not create this type of drive-letter shortcut.
