Problem:

I have a drive letter on my server that is mapped to share on another server or is a USB drive but FRP will not copy files from that drive letter.



Solution:

Mapped drives in widows are associated with the user profile of the computer. FileReplicationPro does not have access to the user profile of the computer. There are two solutions:

1) Install FileReplicationPro on the computer that hosts the shares. Then use that computer's local drive letters to copy the files. Example c:\data
2) Use UNC mappings instead. For example, instead of using the "F" drive use the "\\servername\shared folder" to map to the drive
