Problem

A shortcut on a user's computer desktop is links to the H: drive, but no longer works properly.

Solution

  1. Right-click on the Desktop shortcut.
  2. Select Properties
    1. The target field will probably read: \\storage\Home\username *
  3. Change the target field to point to the correct location.
    1. For Staff:  \\homestead\STAFF_HOME\username *
    2. For Faculty and Retirees:  \\homestead\FAC_HOME\username *
  4. Click OK and the shortcut will now point to the correct location.

*Use your ValpoNet password where the word username is indicated above.
