The network path was not found. error

I keep getting this error while trying to create a mount with the \nfs\ip\path syntax, whereas I can mount it perfectly fine by using windows built in nfs support.

@Danhyal-Masood did you get it working? I got the same problem, not sure what is wrong, README syntax explanation is not very clear

UPDATE: calling fuse-nfs directly works
e.g. locate fuse-nfs.exe, normally at C:\Program Files (x86)\NFS-Win\bin\fuse-nfs.exe
Open cmd and execute "C:\Program Files (x86)\NFS-Win\bin\fuse-nfs.exe" -n nfs://serverip/foldershare -m C:\folder\you\want\to\use\for\mountpoint

C:\folder\you\want\to\use\for\mountpoint may be ideally placed at C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Network Shortcuts (path for Windows 10), so it will appear on "This PC" aka "My Computer"

Thanks! That worked for me too.
I'm accessing a directory with 40000+ jpegs in it, it's a bit slow initially but when it's done receiving the list of files, I can browse through them with IrfanView just fine.
It's quite handy to see the timelapse photos captured by my headless RPi.

I fount that '-m X:' works but then X: isn't visible in explorer, yet I can access it from powershell with 'ls X:'.
On the other hand, '-m C:\nfs' works with explorer.
Unlike with Linux 'mount', the mount point should not exist, so I had to remove the C:\nfs folder I had created first, which caused the mount to fail with error 'mount point in use'.

Big THANKS to @billziss-gh for making it possible!
