Comment on Microsoft is not done yet: more ads spotted in latest Windows 11 build - gHacks Tech News
morbidcactus@lemmy.ca 4 months agoAs an interesting fact, windows totally supports mounting positions to folders and as far as I recall it’s been able to for a very long time, remember doing it as a teenager and thinking it was cool AF.

Yeah, I believe that was introduced as far back as Windows 2000. It never really caught on though.

I think I did it back in xp, I was trying to figure out when support was added.
I don’t think it’s super advertised that it’s a capability which definitely doesn’t help its usage, heck I kinda forgot about it even though I used it until your comment triggered a memory.

I just booted up a Windows 2000 VM to check … it’s there in the disk management tool. It looks a bit weird with the drive icon in Explorer, but ok.
