Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Open File Explorer, then click This PC, then click Map network drive, then choose a drive letter and enter the network path, then check Reconnect at sign-in, then click Finish.
Why this is correct
This order follows the standard Windows procedure: you must first open File Explorer and select This PC to see the Map network drive button, then invoke the dialog, configure the drive letter and path, optionally enable automatic reconnection, and finally complete the mapping.
- ✗
Open File Explorer, then click Map network drive, then click This PC, then choose a drive letter and enter the network path, then check Reconnect at sign-in, then click Finish.
Why it's wrong here
Attempting to click "Map network drive" before selecting "This PC" will fail because the ribbon button is context-sensitive; on the Computer tab, the command is only enabled when you have selected This PC in the navigation pane. Without This PC as the active location, the button appears greyed out, so the wizard cannot be opened, and the rest of the sequence is impossible.
- ✗
Open File Explorer, then click This PC, then click Map network drive, then choose a drive letter and enter the network path, then click Finish, then check Reconnect at sign-in.
Why it's wrong here
The error here is placing "Reconnect at sign-in" after "Finish." When you click Finish, the Map Network Drive wizard immediately creates the drive mapping and closes the dialog. Since the checkbox for persistence was not yet selected, the mapping is created as non-persistent and vanishes after you sign out or reboot, requiring you to remap it manually each time.
- ✗
Open File Explorer, then click This PC, then choose a drive letter and enter the network path, then click Map network drive, then check Reconnect at sign-in, then click Finish.
Why it's wrong here
This ordering tries to choose a drive letter and type a network path before opening the Map Network Drive dialog. Those input fields do not exist in the File Explorer interface; they are only present inside the dialog launched by the Map network drive button, so this sequence would leave you with no place to enter the information and cannot achieve a mapping.
