```bash
[vstorage]
type = s3

    C:\Users\stackops\Downloads\rclone.exe copy [local_path] vstorage:[bucket_name]
    ```
  * To mount a bucket on vStorage to local\_path, run the command:

    ```bash
    C:\Users\stackops\Downloads\rclone.exe mount vstorage:[bucket_name] [local_path] --vfs-cache-mode off --allow-non-empty --allow-other --drive-chunk-size 128M  --max-read-ahead 200M --dir-cache-time 30m

* You do not need to create the local\_path on the local machine when mounting.
* Rclone does not support background mode so you must not close cmd during use.
