    How to open a folder in Windows Explorer automatically upon Windows login?


    I need to validate that a network mapped folder is accessible when I log in before I open apps that rely on it and break when they can't access it for whatever reason, but I'm not seeing any information online about how to do this.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
