title: trying to run a .bat that runs an .exe from a mapped drive or share and have file not found
body: <p>I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.</p>
  
  <p>I have a file share called <code>fileser01</code>. I placed my exe which is hp.exe in <code>\\fileser01\\software</code>. I can map a drive whith this command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>net use f: \\fileser01\\software /user:domain\myaccount
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So the drive shows as <code>f:</code>.</p>
  
  <p>In the .bat file I have <code>start "f:\" hp.exe</code> but it says it can't find the file. What am I doing wrong? I even try to run a vbs and it says it can't find the file</p>
  
  <p>I tried <code>"f:"</code> I tried putting it in another folder in software like media so <code>"f:\media"</code> and still same problem.</p>
