   Yes... but... all you need is the file explorer and "net use" & that works.   
       
      
   You can't mount the Android filesystem as a Windows drive letter with FTP   
   (unless you add third-party software). But WebDAV needs no software.   
      
   Having the Android phone as a Windows drive has huge advantages, e.g., the   
   Windows file explorer can save DIRECTLY from Windows to Android in 1 step.
