    So the above codes would be just run once in a command prompt? Exactly how you listed them (but substituting in my drive letter etc)?

    To make batch file create new txt document. Write code you need inside that document and then go to file save as. When saving use quota marks like "test.bat" and confirm to save. Now you have batch file.

    To make that file run on Windows boot do necessary steps
    To run a batch file at start up: start >> all programs >> right-click startup >> open >> right click batch file >> create shortcut >> drag shortcut to startup folder.

    And yes, change drive letter and path according to your needs

    Is XBMC loading at start-up (immediate) or Delayed/manual.
    you can check via
    Controlpanel>admin tools>Services>XBMC

    Nothing regarding xbmc or Kodi is mentioned under that list? I have a XBMC/Kodi shortcut placed in my startup folder.

    So I tried creating the batch file....
    net use V:
    if %errorlevel% EQU 0 net use V: /delete
    net use V: \\synologynas\movies
    (with V being the mapped drive and synologynas\movies being the folder location)
    I saved it as you mentioned and all that happened is that the mapped drive was gone after a restart?
