If using the command SUBST X: /D does not work then try rem or delete the occurrence of the SUBST command in the autoexec.bat file & reboot.

If using Windows 7, try to open your prompt window as Administrator and then run the SUBST X: /D normally

After doing a Google search (taking less than a minute) I found this:

SUBST X: /D

where X is the SUBST drive

let me quote [this SO comment](http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/8724/how-should-we-deal-with-google-questions#comment141206_8724): Imagine you google for a question, and the first search result that comes up is a StackOverflow post for exactly the question you need. So you click on it, read the answer... and what does it say? “Just google for it!” – nixda Jan 24 '13 at 15:17
