Map folder as drive permanently in Windows [duplicate]

Solution 1:

I found some posts here, apparently you can make it persistent with a registry modification: How to make SUBST mapping persistent across reboots?

Granted I haven't tried this myself...

Solution 2:

you can use this utility to solve the conflict. it is called USB Drive Letter Manager for Windows.
