$ subst ${Z:} ${C:\Python2-7}
try on your machine
The command subst ${Z:} ${C:\Python2-7}
is using the subst
command in the Windows command prompt to create a virtual drive letter (Z:) that points to the directory on the local disk (C:\Python2-7).
Here is a breakdown of the command:
subst
: This is a command in Windows used to create, remove, or manage virtual drives.${Z:}
: This is a placeholder representing the desired drive letter to be assigned. In this case, it is specifying the letter Z.${C:\Python2-7}
: This is a placeholder representing the path to the directory that will be assigned to the virtual drive. In this case, it is set to C:\Python2-7, which is a path to a directory named Python2-7 located on the C: drive.
When this command is executed, a virtual drive Z: will be created, and whenever you access Z:\ in Windows Explorer or any other file management utility, it will point to the C:\Python2-7 directory.
