Drive Letter

[WaJo]

Hi,

I have 3 partitions on my Hard Disk and the drive letter of my CD Rom
is E.
I have a mapped network drive taking the letter F.

When I plug my USB in my computer it doesn't open bc by default the
Falsh disk is taking the drive letter F which is used by the network
drive.

TO go around this issue I have to go to disk managememnt and change the
drive letter of my USB to smthg other than F for it to work.

How can I set that by default make the USB take another letter instead
of F ?

Thanks,

Answer from my archive:

The best way to avoid this conflict is to use 'high letters'
for network shares.

If a different letter for the network share is no option and
you handle with many USB drives, then my USB drive letter manager
may be a solution:

Why not just map the network drive to 'G' ??
