A very handy MS Windows tip. Treat a folder as a disk drive.

Want to treat a folder, like it's a drive? (Rather like a mapped network drive)
Courtesy of someone over at the DVD forums, I've just found this link. Why did I not know about this before.

A very handy tip indeed.

Open up a command window (Start->Run type cmd in the textbox then click OK in Win 2k/XP) and enter the following in the resulting window:

mkdir C:\MyFolder
subst M: C:\MyFolder

Will create a new folder C:\MyFolder and then create a drive M that equates to C:\MyFolder. If you need this to persist over a reboot/logoff then just add a new command file to your startup folder with subst M: C:\MyFolder in it
