A Network Drive Windows 11 2021 — Map

Mapping a network drive in Windows 11 is a practical way to create a persistent shortcut to a shared folder or storage device on your network (such as a NAS, another PC, or an external drive connected to your router). Once mapped, the drive appears under "This PC" with its own letter (e.g., Z:), making it as easy to access as your local hard drive.
