Hi
Trying to add a unc path to my IE favourites, but open within the same window in IE7 and not a new windows so we can add favourites to the root or the unc path which is mapped to another network drive.
At the moment I have changed the reg so the IE favourites are pointing to a shared mapped network drive but also want a link in the favourites which takes me to the users network mapped drive so we can just add IE favoruties to both places within the same windows pane.

I'm very confused by your question. If I understand you correctly, all you want to do is add the user's home (mapped) drive to the Favorites? If so, just type in the drive letter of the mapped share into the address bar and hit enter. Then, add that to the Favorites.

I wanted it to show up when I click on the internet favourites, as a list as well, so I can get to list of favourites from 2 map drives areas. At the moment I can change the register to point to a shared location, but not able to show to shared locations.
