I am left with the question, why? Does the culture at Microsoft not care about the quality of their product? Does the lack of such a basic and often-needed function reflect disdain toward people their founder wants to remove from Earth?

Or how about a way to get the size of all files in a folder?
Or print out a directory file listing?
Folder sizes - xplorer2/lite, Directory Opus
Directory print : Karen's Directory Printer
This is a classic example of Microsoft's "What me worry?" attitude. Because of the development and subsequent growth of 3rd party options, it would appear Microsoft can't be bothered putting in the time and effort to continue devlopement of it's Windows built-in programs.
As someone else once said elsewhere in these forums, Window 10/11 is the absolute most perfect program ... for running third party software options.
AFAIK there is no option to copy any lettered drive path, mapped or otherwise. The path for any lettered drive is simply the drive letter.
EDIT If you want to copy the path for a shortcut Yu don't say why you need to copy the mapped path?), forget about the drive letter, just copy the path from Windows Explorer (now there's something Windows Explorer can do).

One method to get the path of the mapped drive itself is to look in the Registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2
Map network drive - TenForumsTutorials
You'd then have to manually add any further path to a folder within it [get that bit using File explorer].

First of all, I woiuld like to request you allow me to compliment you on some very highly excellent ideas
Has anyone proven the technology existing today and at has the today, ability to provide informations like that? I think the technology does not exist. Otherwise why would these global technologies not be available to you, me and the grandchidren around us? These peoples prove every day the are incapable of thought in the space between our ears. I thank you, and almost all my peoples thank you also.

Does that solution require continued use of the so-called System of window, hacks, etc

The greateat peace and serentity I have known was the result of knowing Microsoft could lie to me no longer without me knowing. Ever since then. I know I can bring them down before they bring me down. That is a state of peace.
Why couldn't you ask the question without adding conspiracy theories?I am left with the question, why? Does the culture at Microsoft not care about the quality of their product?
