To access network shares, the drive has to be "mapped".
For Windows 10:
Press the Windows key + E to open a File Explorer window
Choose “This PC” from the left side of the window
Click the “Computer” tab across the top
Click the “Map Network Drive” button
Fill in the path to the drive in the “Folder” text box as shown in the below example.
Home Drive (J) \\fs01.it.farmingdale.edu\home\your_username
Other Network Shares \\fs02.it.farmingdale.edu\groups\your_networkshare
Put a check mark in both boxes as shown. Click Finish.
Enter your network credentials as shown below: your_username@farmingdale.edu
To create a shortcut of your network share on the desktop, in “This PC”, right click on your network share in Network locations and drag it out to the desktop.
Once you let up on the right mouse button, choose “Create shortcuts here”.
* When you are done using the network share drive for the day, choose Map network drive and choose Disconnect network drive. The drive will disappear from the File Explorer.
