; Usage: | |
; (1) Make sure that all your network drives are connected | |
; (2) Start 'SaveConnectedDrivesList.exe' - all connected drive letters will be saved to a text file (%AppData%\networkdrives.txt) | |
; See https://gist.github.com/elpatron68/6085800017d39b8cf1090c9398fb8f47 for SaveConnectedDrivesList | |
; (3) Add ReCoNe.exe to your Autostart group (or add a Scheduled Task) to let it start after each logon. | |
; (3a) Alternatively run 'AddScheduledTask.exe' once after step (2) | |
; | |
; You can change the list of network drives by editing of %AppData%\networkdrives.txt | |
