Just a curiosity, really. I know that persistent drive mappings are at
HKCU\Network. But when I map a non-persistent drive it is not added to
this key. Ok, fine. And I know I can 'net use' to see it. But where
does 'net use' refer to get the information on non-persistent drive
mappings.

Thanks.

One way to find it, if it is in the registry, is to map a
conspicuous path, then search the registry for it.
