If prompted, enter in your SharePoint username and password and select 'Remember my credentials'.

From here, it is possible to grad a link in your 'Favourites' column for easy access to the library. This will be available after the computer has been rebooted.
5. To view all of the libraries and to create favourite shortcuts, click on the SharePoint web address.
All the commonly accessed document libraries will then appear as well as system document libraries. It is then possible to add favourite links to other SharePoint libraries from here.
It is also possible to stop SharePoint from prompting for a password each time a library is accessed via the Windows Explorer view after the computer has been rebooted. Please contact us to implement this functionality.
