HOWTO| Map a Local Folder Just Like a Network Drive ...
The net use command is used to assign shared drives on a network to your own computer as a drive letter, but did you know there's another command that can be used to do the same thing to any folder on any of your local hard drives?
There is, and it's called the subst command. Just execute the subst command, followed by the path of the folder you wish to appear as a drive.
For example, let's say you want your C:WindowsFonts folder to appear as the Q: drive. Just execute this command and you're set:
subst q: c:windowsfonts
This Command Prompt trick makes accessing a particular location from the Command Prompt much easier and the folder will appear as a drive next to all your real hard drives.
Tip: An easy way to delete the "network drive" example here is with the subst /d q: command. Just replace the q: with your own drive letter.
