To map a drive using the Microsoft Windows Explorer:
- Open Windows Explorer on your MS Windows computer.
- Right-click on Computer entry and select Map network drive… from the drop-down menu.
- Choose a local network drive to which you want to map Nextcloud.
- Specify the address to your Nextcloud instance, followed by /remote.php/dav/files/USERNAME/. For example:
- https://example.com/nextcloud/remote.php/dav/files/USERNAME/
- Click the Finish button.
Windows Explorer maps the network drive, making your Nextcloud instance available
Note
For SSL protected servers, check Reconnect at sign-in to ensure that the mapping is persistent upon subsequent reboots. If you want to connect to the Nextcloud server as a different user, check Connect using different credentials.
