What is Win Subst?
Subst for Windows (Win Subst) is a free tool to substitute a drive letter to a local folder on the same computer, just like the old DOS subst command. For example, you could use Win Subst to map your Google Drive folder stored at C:\Users[your name]\Google Drive to a drive letter like S:. Whenever you click on the S:\ drive in the Windows Explorer or My Computer you would actually be redirected to the Google Drive folder and you can view or modify all files and folders as they where stored on drive S:. This can be useful in so many different situations, it allows you for example quick access to files that are stored deeply on your computers hard-drive. Also it can help you to overcome limitations when working with paths that are longer than 256 characters.
