There are alot of things that have to do with that in CMD, you might be thinking of net use[^] which maps network paths to drives, or maybe subst[^] which maps local directorys into new drives. You can then create a bat/cmd file which executes upon each login, to map the users home drive to the right folder/server. Dont forget about the variables in cmd, like %USERNAME%, they can all be listed with the command set

Im not sure if i understand exactly what you want, but like you can hide the main %windir% drives by changing some things in the registry. Then use permissions to deny root access. And then use the subst command to map a folder (which they have permission to) in the hidden drive. And that should be it. or hu?
