I've got my local disks set to be accessible from remote connected Windows Server 2008.
When I open some location in the Windows Explorer, after some time or after re-connecting that location and all its contents become unavailable and when I try to navigate to a parent location I receive an error that says Class not registered.
I'm okay with that but how can I create a shortcut to that location without having to open folder by folder each time the location becomes unavailable?
I tried adding the location to favorites but it doesn't work unless I navigate to the desired folder all the way from root.

The title of your post suggests you want to resolve / troubleshoot a windows explorer error, while the question you ask pertains to creating shortcuts, which is it you want to achieve? – Kitet – 2017-09-08T13:43:01.053
@Kitet Sorry for the misleading title. I'm pretty sure that this issue cannot be easily resolved so a workaround as a shortcut will be a sufficient solution. – Szybki – 2017-09-08T14:13:53.557
Create a shortcut to any folder on the desktop of your server, (e.g. right-mouse-button-drag c: drive to the desktop and choose
create shortcut), right-click again and chooseproperties. On theshortcuttab change contents oftargetfield by manually typing fully qualified name of the folder you really need the shortcut to (e.g.G:\folder1\subfolder2\and-so-on). – Kitet – 2017-09-08T18:36:24.503
