Mapping a network drive in windows 7

I want to access shared folders in the network using the local drive letter. (Eg. \\shared_drive\folder as Z:)

I am able to use the "Map Drive" option from "My Computer" window to do this.

But is there any command to map a network drive in windows 7 or later versions?

How do I Map a network drive in Windows 7 to Windows 10?

Click on the file explorer icon in your taskbar or hit Windows Key and the E key at the same time. Click on This PC on the left side task bar, then at the top of the window click on tab labeled Computer. 2.) Click the Map network drive button in the ribbon menu at the top, then select "Map network drive."

The following command is working for me.

net use Z: \\shared_drive\folder
