Flashair: Mounting root directory in Windows 10
I had my Flashair working nicely in Windows 7.. I just mapped \\192.168.1.120 as a network drive and could see it like a hard-drive.
I have just changed the computer and started with a fresh build of Windows10 and I can no longer mount the card.
What I have found is that I can mount directories on the card, for example \\192.168.1.20\gcode.
Its no big deal as I can just move everything down one folder and mount that.. I assume this is a Windows thing and there is a change between Win7 and Win10.. But I am curious to understand why in Win7 I can mount my card using \\192.168.1.120 and in Win10 I have to address a folder (\\192.168.1.120\<folder>)
Does anyone have any windows knowledge that can explain this?

Have you tried running: \\192.168.1.120\DavWWWRoot ?
It works my Windows 10 x64.
Have a look at my models on Printables.com 😉

That worked.. I am 99% sure that I used to just mount \\192.168.1.120 on Win7, but I could be wrong.
But it doesn't matter.. That fixed it... Thanks for the tip..

I did struggle with it too when using Windows. As I remember it \\192.168.1.120 worked in the explorer, but a shortcut needed the full path \\192.168.1.120\DavWWWRoot to work.

It is very odd.. On my old PC (Win7), I just have \\192.168.1.120 mounted.. But on Win10, I have to mount of fold (or use your DavWWWRoot workaround)...
But its such a non-issue.. Its working now, and thats all that matters, so I am happy.
Thanks again for your help
