Map Drive utility

The MapDrv utility provides network share related functions for System Update.
To define the network share information, use the MapDrv utility to connect or
disconnect network shares. The MapDrv utility maintains this network share
information in a registry key that is protected by administrator access only. The
network share information includes the network share name (in UNC format), user
name (saved in the registry as an encrypted string), and the password (saved in
the registry as an encrypted string).

The MapDrv utility can be found in the System Update installation directory. The
default installation directory is located at c:\Program Files\Lenovo\System
Update.

Network share information is stored in the registry at:

HKLM\Software\Lenovo\MND\TVSUAPPLICATION

If an Active Directory policy is used, these values are stored at:

HKLM\Software\Policies\Lenovo\MND\TVSUAPPLICATION

The values stored in this location are:
