Yes, I tried it. I tried double-clicking, tried right-click>Explore, I tried
commandline "W:" as you suggested (I mapped it to "W" to mean web folder)
Nothing works until I disconnect and remap.

Note that I CAN have the webDAV folder show up as a "web folder" without a
drive letter. That works fine. But for many software (including OneNote),
it cannot access that directory, saying that the folder name is not valid. I
guess that's a known problem, though, as Ilya has noted beforehand.
