One way to make 'hidden' SMB shares reappear

At my work, we have a large number of SMB shares, and for some reason they stop showing up on desktops sometimes. If you look for them in Terminal, they are mounted, but they are not in the Finder anywhere. If this happens, here's one way to get them back.

A new Finder window will open with the root contents of the volume you chose, and the icon will then appear in the Finder window and on the desktop (if you have network volumes showing on your desktop).
