How can I easily access Windows shares from the Rpi3?

I have a Rpi3 which has been set up from 32gb NOOBS, and has VNC and XRDP installed so I run it headless via Windows Desktop Client on a Win7 laptop.

On the WIn7 computer I have an explicit share of the C: drive called c. (Of course, there is an implicit equivalent called c$ built into Windows - they work the same except mine shows up under Networks in Windows File Manager on the other networked Windows computers)

I want to access my Windows c: Drive share on the Rpi3. The IP address of my DEV laptop is 192.168.5.213 and the share name is c

Question: What is the easiest way to access Windows shares from Rpi3?
