In other words, mapping allows you to create a new drive letter for a folder, giving you access to it just like other computer drives.

Unfortunately, mapped drives don\u2019t always work the way we want them to and some people may run into the issue of a mapped network drive that is not showing. When the drive isn\u2019t showing, you obviously can\u2019t open and work on it. The good news? There are a few different ways to resolve this issue.

When this happens, users cannot see them at all, even when they go to select the appropriate drive letter. This is what happens when files or folders are hidden on the NAS drives, and it can easily happen to mapped network drives. Here\u2019s how to unhide your mapped network drives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Windows 10\/8:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Step 1. Open File Explorer.<\/li><li>Step 2. Click on the \u201cview\u201d tab.<\/li><li>Step 3. Click on the box next to \u201cHidden items\u201d.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Windows 7:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Step 1.
