Hello! I'd be happy to help you with mapping a drive in Windows 10 Pro.

To map a drive in Windows 10 Pro, you can follow these steps:

1. Open File Explorer by pressing the Windows key + E.
2. In the left sidebar, click on "This PC" to view your computer's drives.
3. Right-click on the drive you want to map and select "Map Network Drive" from the context menu.
4. In the "Map Network Drive" window, enter the network location of the drive (e.g. a UNC path such as \server\share) and choose a drive letter for the map.
5. Click "Reconnect at login" if you want the drive to be automatically connected every time you log in.
6. Click "Finish" to complete the mapping process.

Alternatively, you can also map a drive using the Command Prompt. To do so, open the Command Prompt and type the following command:

net use <drive letter>: \<network location>\<share name>

For example, to map a drive to the network location \\server\share as the letter Z:, you would enter:

net use z: \server\share

After entering the command, you will be prompted to enter your username and password to connect to the network. Once you have entered the credentials, the drive will be mapped and you can access its contents.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please let me know.
