Network connections disappear

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Network connections disappear

Post by *nilsgrund »

Running Windows 10 TC run as administrator.
When I add network connections they sometimes disappear (after reboot mostly often).
The icons used to be there even if drives where not available or mapped in windows.
Now I have to re-map all the drives again after reboot.

If I map drives in windows they do show up automagically.

Network shares created by users with elevated rights are handled differently from normal users. This has nothing to do with TC. This is a windows "feature".

If you want to use shares, created by elevated users, in non-elevated mode or vice versa, then just save the following code as reg file and execute it:

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"EnableLinkedConnections"=dword:00000001
After that, reboot your machine. Then you are able to create network shares in Explorer and access them via elevated TC.

Not sure if this is the same kind of topic. Running Win7-64 Enterprise and now TC 32-9.0a_rc3. Normally when I reboot when off-network, my mapped drives are kept, but a red x shows in the dropdown drive list in TC. Then I run the vpn client to log remotely into the network, and then from the TC button bar, run a batch file to remap those drives. Red x's disappeared and I could access those drives. Not sure if this is from 9.0a_rc3, but I just did all of those steps but the red x still shows, but I can access the drives. On a couple of those remote drives, the red x disappears after I access the drive, but on a couple of others the red x still shows even though I accessed the drive.

I this something with rc3? I've done this for years and it always worked until just now.

Maybe I just found it? In rc3 changes, "LoadDriveIconsInBackground=0" must not be set in Configuration to get the former operation??
