| Scenario | Recommended Approach | |----------|----------------------| | One-off manual mapping on your own PC | GUI or net use (whichever you type faster) | | Scripted login mapping (batch) | net use /persistent:yes in a startup script | | Complex conditional mapping (e.g., backup server if primary down) | PowerShell with Test-Connection and try/catch | | Mapping for a scheduled task or service | net use with saved credentials using cmdkey | | Cross-platform (including Linux via PowerShell Core) | New-PSDrive without -Persist (persistence is OS-level) |
