Mapped network drives not working
Category: Usability tricks
Problem
Due to Bladed needing to run as Admin, sometimes mapped network drives do not appear in the file browser windows in Bladed.
Solution
Open Registry Editor by typing in regedit on the Start Menu and hitting Enter.
- Navigate through HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System (or in Windows 7, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Microsoft, Windows, CurrentVersion, Policies and System).
- Right click on System and select New and then DWORD value.
- Enter EnableLinkedConnections as the name.
- Right click on the new EnableLinkedConnections and select Modify (note that there may already be an "EnabledLinkedConnections" in this directory as well).
- Set the value to 1 and click OK.
- Restart your computer.
