Navigating a VPN connection, Viewing directories using VPN connection



It's been a dog's age since I played with a VPN on Windows.  You can set up an VPN following these instructions:

So I did it and then thought: "OK, what now?  How do I navigate or see directories?".  I had forgotten.

Open an Explorer window (Windows key + e) and in the navigation bar, type in a double backslash followed by the IP address followed by another backslash then C$ to get to the base C drive directory.  From there, click to your hearts content to navigate.

Hope this helps.
