WTFOTD: Microsoft, shared drives, properties

  1. Have an external drive with mounted to S:
  2. Have a network share mounted as S:
  3. Open Disk Management
  4. Right click the external drive and select “Properties”
  5. Be surprised when the properties for the network share come up

It looks like Microsoft looks up properties via drive letter, even when you physically click the drive in the Disk Management app. Not deadly, just surprising. Maybe this should only be a WTHeck?
