Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-446:
------------------------------------------

I noticed that if I change the FILESYSTEM name from GUACAMOLE TO CLOUD it 
becomes C on Guacamole RDP. I have read in one of the post that G on or C on is 
added by Windows itself and we cannot change it.

Yes, this is correct.

Does Windows strip the first letter of the FILESYSTEM name ? or is it beacuse 
of unicoding in windows because of which it doesn't take complete filesystem 
name?
{quote}

I can only speculate, but it really has no effect on the issue at hand. Within 
the RDP protocol, there exists only a mechanism for providing an arbitrary name 
for the redirected drive. There is no mechanism for defining the drive letter 
assigned to that drive. Regardless of what Windows does internally and why, 
there is simply no means that any RDP client can control the drive letter.
