Even if you are a casual user, I am sure you have tons of folders in your computer that can make it difficult to find the files you want sometimes.

The Windows Explorer application in Windows doesn’t make it any easier for you to locate your files. Wouldn’t it be great if you could mount your frequently accessed folder as a virtual drive (such as E:, F: etc.) in Windows so they could appear in the “Computer” list and you could easily access your folder with a single click?

Visual Subst is a small tool that allows you to link your favorite folders to virtual drives. It is only 78kb in size and doesn’t require any installation.

Mounting a folder as a virtual drive with Visual Subst

1. Download the zipped file from the Visual Subst website. It is only 78kb in size.

2. Extract the archive and double click the “VSubst” application to run it.
