  3. In the New Drive Properties dialog box, add a new mapped drive (for example, we have chosen W: as our drive for testing).
  • Set the Action drop-down menu to Replace.
  • In the Location field, enter the https address of x360Sync server.
  • Set the Drive Letter field according to your preferences.
  • In the Connect as section, enter credentials for the account.

  • Click Ok to close the New Drive Properties dialog box.  By clicking on the highest number in the order ranking you will see the drive mapping you just created.  The description will match the description that you entered above.  You can optionally map different accounts to the same drive letter with different credentials.  By doing this, the appropriate users will see the appropriate x360Sync WebDAV drive.
