Problem:

I am unable to use the remote browser feature with mapped drives



Solution:

FRP doesn't support remote browsing of mapped drives. This is a Windows and not an FRP limitation. Windows restricts access from the local service to mapped drives at the OS level. All Windows versions starting from 2000 and on have this limitation.
The following is a link to Microsoft KB article regarding this issue:

Users can access remote resources from the Windows machine directly, by using UNC paths like: \\computername\sharename\path
