All faculty and staff have access to the OneDrive for Business feature in our Microsoft Office 365 environment. OneDrive should be used for individual work-related content or shared files. Your specific department may use the T:Drive for file storage.
Windows users connected to the campus network (wired or wireless) get their FalconShare spaces mapped automatically. The campus department file spaces are mapped as T: drive. Other spaces commonly available are 'Falcon' as O: drive and 'eSIS' as R: drive. Student employees need to log into the computer with their student employee 'S' account in order to access department spaces.
Due to the way that drives are mapped, using a laptop off-campus and then bringing it back on campus without first logging off will result in the drives not reconnecting. To resolve this problem, there are two options:
Option 1: Re-map the network drive (Quickest option)
- Make sure a secure connection is established with the UWRF network (If you are off campus, use VPN - Virtual Private Network)
- Open File Explorer
- Right click on This PC on the left side of the window
- Select Map network drive from the menu that appears
- Choose T drive and type this: \\falconshare.uwrf.edu\campus
- Choose O drive and type this: \\wings\falcon
- Choose R drive and type this: \\wings\esis
- Select Finish
Option 2: Log off of the laptop and log back in while connected to the network. (If you are off campus, enable the VPN Connect before sign-on feature; instructions can be found in the related article about VPN.)
