How to map the ISU Personal Website Drive

Last modified 2/28/2024

Before you begin

The local IT support team must deploy the ISU Personal Website Drive Mapping - Windows 11  application in ConfigMgr to the endpoint before proceeding.

Installing the software

Open Software Center and install the ISU Personal Website Drive Mapping - Win11  software

After the installation is complete:

  • Ensure winfsp is installed
  • Ensure these files exist:
    • C:\ProgramData\isupersonalweb\rclone.exe 
    • C:\ProgramData\isupersonalweb\s3_connect.bat 
    • C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\launch_s3_connect.vbs 

C:\ProgramData is a hidden directory

 Either copy the path into the address bar, or enable the Show hidden files, folders, and drives  setting.


Once the installation has completed, sign out and sign back on.
You will be prompted to enter in a ULID, access_key, secret_key, and drive letter.

Cannot proceed without access and secret key

If the user does not have their access and/or secret key, please submit a ticket to CCA to request they be sent via SendToISU.


Once completed, the drive will be mapped to the chosen drive letter.

Restarting the setup process

To start the setup again, delete all the files in the C:\Users\<uid>\.config\rclone  OR
Rename the C:\Users\<uid>\.config  folder to C:\Users\<uid>\.config.bak to retain the previous files as a backup.

Run C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp\launch_s3_connect.vbs
