About Visual Subst

Visual Subst allows you to create virtual drives for your most accessed local directories and network shares. It solves 3 main issues with the built-in 'SUBST' and 'NET USE' commands: it creates drives for elevated applications without any UAC prompts, adds editable drive labels and restores drives after reboots. Visual Subst is the best alternative to writing complicated scripts and editing registry manually.
