SyncToy with Network Drives

Wanted to synchronize a local directory with one on the network drive. Fired up Microsoft's SyncToy to do the job. For some reason, SyncToy is not able to see the network folder mapped to a local drive letter.

Solution? Use the UNC path instead. Not sure what's the UNC path for your mapped drive? Run "net use" on the command prompt.
