If I ever have a question about registry entries, as related to any system
changes (such as mapping a drive), I use Regmon (free) from SysInternals.

And, I start with a Process Explorer (also free, also from SysInternals)
display.

# Open the application (probably Windows Explorer, in your case).
# Identify the application in Process Explorer, and get its PID.
# Start Regmon.
# Create a filter in Regmon, ":PID" where PID is the PID of the application in
question.
# Go back to your application, make the change, and see what Regmon shows.
# When you find an interesting entry in Regmon, you can double click on it to
automatically display the registry entry in question.
