What is the use of subst in dos detail plz?In: Computer Viruses |
[Edit] |
Answer
It is a substitute command.
Use the SUBST command to substitute a drive letter for a path in order to treat a virtual drive (a reserved area rather than an actual disk drive) as a physical drive.
Example: To create a virtual drive F for the path, SALES\LETTERS (under the root directory) of drive C, enter
subst f: c:\sales\letters
Read and write requests to either drive F or to C:\SALES\LETTERS will be stored in the C:\SALES\LETTERS directory area.
