So a user was upgraded to a new laptop today.
As part of her migration process I had gotten everything over to her new computer except I had forgotten her mapped network drives.
Not really a problem.
I sneakernet back to my repair lab and fire up her old laptop. I drag and drop her mapped drives onto the USB stick thinking I would simply use the letters and names to recreate them on her new computer.
However...that last step wasn't needed.
Oh, you think I just dragged and dropped them? No.
With the USB stick in, simply right click on each mapped drive and select properties. Then take a look at the "My Computer" window. Those drive are mapped automatically. Really...that easy.
I love finding things by mistake!
