If you re going to access your local computer  or any computer  using UNC  you ll need to setup a share   If you haven t already setup a share  you could use the default administrative shares   Example     localhost c  my dir      accesses a folder called  my dir  via UNC on your C  drive   By default all the hard drives on your machine are shared with hidden shares like c   d   etc
