Unable to access Network mapped drive.

Guest

Hello,

I have recently mapped a network drive to my client PCs using login script
"NET USE" command.

However, after a while my users would encounter the error message "Microsoft
Windows Network : The local device name is already in use. This connection
has not been restored." when they try to access the network drive.

Does anyone know what is the cause of the above error? Is there anyway to
resolve such an error, as I could not find any solution on the Microsoft
Website.

Thank you.

Modify your logon script like so:

@echo off
net use /persistent:no
net use x: \\YourServer\YourShare

You may have to remove remembered network connections manually
with the command net use * /del
