Correct answer: From Computer1, configure the Remote Desktop Connection settings..
Why this is the answer
To make local drives available during a Remote Desktop session, you must configure the settings on the client computer (Computer1) before establishing the connection. Within the Remote Desktop Connection application on Computer1, navigate to "Show Options," then the "Local Resources" tab, and under "Local devices and resources," click "More..." to select the drives you wish to share. Configuring Remote Desktop settings on Computer2 would affect incoming connections generally, but not the specific resource redirection from Computer1. Allowing Remote Desktop in Windows Defender Firewall on Computer1 is irrelevant as Computer1 is the client initiating the connection, not the host. Allowing File and Printer Sharing on Computer2 is for network file sharing, not for redirecting local drives into an RDP session.
