Hi,
This plugin only supports accessing the drive it’s installed on under Windows platforms, other fixed disks are not supported at present.
Due to Permission limitations, the PHP cannot see Network or Mapped drives on the server anyway normally, so this isn’t high on the priority of tasks that need working on.

Hi dev, thanks for your quick reply!
Hm.. but still is there some workaround maybe, to make php see mapped drives? I don’t mind setting permissions somehow.
Also, I wonder how this plugin accesses files, via ftp?
Thanks
IIRC there’s a Registry hack to make mapped drives available to the PHP user able to create mapped drives (PHP Normally runs in a much lower privilege account in a separate process).
This plugin only uses direct file access for importing, no FTP/etc is used.
No extra windows support will be added past what it already supports.
You could probably use NTFS Junctions to mount a 2nd fixed drive somewhere the plugin can access (ie. making d:\ available at c:\d_drive\) but that won’t work with mapped network shares.
