network folders
Instead of mapping a folder to a drive letter, you can create a shortcut to the network location you want to access and then you can, if you wish, pin the shortcut to Quick Access, the Start Menu, or the Task Bar.
Right-click your desktop and select New ➡ Shortcut.
Enter the location (path) of the folder you want to access. In this example, we’re creating a shortcut to \\vulcan\public, which everyone has access to.
Give the shortcut a name.
The shortcut will be on your desktop.
Finally, if you want the shortcut to appear in Quick Access, right-click the shortcut and click Pin to Quick access.
