Mapped Drive Not Connecting at Startup
Here is another alternative if you just want to get rid of the warning. Mapped drives will not connect until you click on them for the first time but the annoying warning won't pop up at start up . Again it requires a registry edit and needs to be done with caution.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\
Set or create a DWORD
RestoreConnection = 0
Do a restart after making the changes.
Just a follow up. My Vista PC has started to display the same problem again even with the registry edit in my previous post. (mapped drives fail to connect and I get the warning message) I will do some investigation and post back with my findings. Win7 PC is still functioning as expected.
