How do I add a WebDrive folder to Windows library? Indexing a network drive

  1. Create a folder on your C: drive called c:\Library\Photos  (choose whatever you want here).
  2. Go to your windows library, e.g. Pictures, add in the c:\library\photos folder you just created, and click ok.
  3. In Explorer, delete the "Photos" directory in c:\library you created in step 1.
  4. Open a command prompt and enter the following command: "mklink /d c:\library\photos w:\MyPictures". Substitute w:\mypictures with whatever folder on your WebDrive you want to add to the library. This step creates a symbolic link to a folder on your WebDrive.
  5. Go back to your windows library in Explorer and click F5 refresh. Your webdrive folder should appear normally.
