Workaround:

Currently, we don't have the option to change the FileCloud Drive mount name entirely. Our only option is to set the Mount name as your Display name via a flag in the config.xml.


To do this, you can follow these steps.

 

  1. Open the FileCloud Drive configuration file for editing. 
    It is located in Program Files/FileCloud Drive/service/config.xml.
  2. Add the following key:
        <useuniquemountlabel>1</useuniquemountlabel>
