How do I map a network drive to access it in File Explorer (or if connecting on a VPN)?
Environment
File Explorer
Solution
1. Open File Explorer from the task bar or the Start menu, or press the Windows logo key + E.
2. Select This PC from the left pane. Then, on the "Computer" tab, select Map network drive.
3. In the "Drive" list, select a drive letter and fill out the Folder box.
| Drive |
Folder |
| F: |
\\nsu-fs01\users\firstname.lastname\
Note: This is your email (without the "@northern.edu"), so it may be different for some people.

\\nsu-fs01\public\ |
4. Check the box to "Reconnect at sign-in".
