mapping a drive letter to a local folder ?

[proteanthread]

is it possible to map a drive letter to a local folder without mapping
it as a network drive and so that it stays this drive letter even when
shutting down / rebooting (permanently or until i remove the drive letter) ?

It certainly is! Just map it to

\\%ComputerName%\c$\SomeFolder
or
\\127.0.0.1\c$\SomeFolder

%ComputerName% is the NetBIOS name of your PC.

Put this command into your startup script:
subst P: "c:\SomeFolder"

The effect is the same as with a network drive.
