Accessing local files and folders in a remote session
With Remote Desktop Connection, your local drives are available automatically when you are connected to a remote computer.
Within a Remote Desktop session, your local drives appear in Windows Explorer with the following designation:
<driveletter>\ on tsclient
To access local drives from a command line or a run line in a remote session, type:
\\tsclient\<driveletter>
where driveletter is the drive letter (without a colon) of the local drive.
