  • Windows: how to mount remote directory

    2018-05

    We can use the command pushd to mount/map a remote directory through windows command line.
    This is the syntax:

    
    PUSHD [path | ..]
    
    path Specifies the directory to make the current directory.
    

    If Command Extensions are enabled the PUSHD command accepts network paths in addition to the normal drive letter and path.
    If a network path is specified, PUSHD will create a temporary drive letter that points to that specified network resource and then change the current drive and directory, using the newly defined drive letter.
    Temporary drive letters are allocated from Z: on down, using the first unused drive letter found.

    Example:
    
    C:\Users\gnetto\Desktop>pushd \\myad\directory
    Z:\USERS13\gnetto\config\Desktop>
    

    And to unmap the virtual drive and return to your previous local path, you can use the command popd.
