How to connect to an HTTPS WebDAV Folder on Windows 7?

Instead of going through the GUI it said you should go to a command prompt and type in a command similar to this one:

net use * https://webdav.example.com:port/folder

It prompted me for a username and password and then mapped the drive.

I was able to access my files this way. Hope it works for you.

This works for Windows 10:

net use drive_letter: \\sitename@ssl@port/folder/subfolder password /user:userID

The @port is the port number if required. For example

net use x: \\webdav.example.edu@ssl@5050/proj/xyz correct.horse.battery.staple /user:stu

Go to a "Computer" Explorer window, right click, and click "Add a Network Location.

In the dialog box you write like this

\\yourserverfqdn@SSL\folder

for example if your webdav URL is https://www.netshahr.com/tech should be

\\www.netshahr.com@SSL\tech

Notes:

Don't add 'https://' at start of you address

Your SSL certificate should be added to windows store if it is self signed.

Sometimes it fails at first time but with second try it works .


By default, the Webclient service is not running on windows 8.1+ client. But for windows 7 client this service is running by default.

So please try to start the WebClient service on windows 8.1+ client to check if it helps.

I just got it working by doing this =)
