I would like to get all the mapped drives of a machine in a file.

Yes, it is effectively possible to realize such an inventory with IDEAL Administration.

First, download the free 30 day version of our software if you have not installed it yet: Download IDEAL Administration.

Our tool offers several possibilities in order to do manage and list mapped drives:

Use the right click on the computer, "Properties", "Devices", "Network drives" tab.
You can manage all your network drives remotely by using the Action menu (List, Add, Remove).
