  2. Click on "This PC" in the left pane of File Explorer.
  3. Start the mapping process:
  • Click the "More" option (three dots) on the ribbon, then choose "Map network drive". 
  • Alternatively, right-click on "This PC" and select "Map network drive"

       4. Set up the mapping:

  • Select a drive letter from the "Drive" drop down menu. 
  • Type the network path (e.g., \\server\share or an IP address) in the "Folder" field. 
  • If you want the drive to reconnect automatically at login, check "Reconnect at sign-in". 
  • When the login box appears, enter your OSU credentials.
    • It should auto-fill, but ensure the user ID shows “pharmacy\name.#”
  1. Finish the process: Click "Finish" to complete the mapping
