Spring Boot custom static resource location outside of project

How can I add a custom resource location that is on for example my D drive in folder called Resources. 

@Configuration
public class StaticResourceConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
    @Override
    public void addResourceHandlers(ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {
        super.addResourceHandlers(registry);
        registry.addResourceHandler("/**").addResourceLocations("D:/Resources/");
    }
}

This doesn't work.

This is my application class and the only other configuration file.

@SpringBootApplication public class Application {

public static void main(String args[]){
    SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}

@Bean // for websocket endpoints
public ServerEndpointExporter serverEndpointExporter() {
    return new ServerEndpointExporter();
}

@Bean
public PasswordEncoder bcryptPasswordEncoder(){
    return new BCryptPasswordEncoder();
}

}

You should state your location using the file prefix, check more here . So it should be

registry.addResourceHandler("/**").addResourceLocations("file:///D:/Resources/");

Try /D:/Resources/. Absolute path must start with /
