It’s constantly becoming unmapped (sometimes randomly in the middle of the day). File explorer pages close out by themselves somewhat frequently too. Just curious what might be going on in IT (they’re the ones who showed me how to re-map).
It’s either an attack on your IT infrastructure, updates breaking something, or your IT doing some
suspiciousbold things.Either way, create (if you didn’t already) a *.BAT file on your desktop containing these lines:
net use * /delete net use letterofmappeddrive: \\pathtothesharedplace /persistent:Yesrepeat the last line for each mapped drive and run the script every time something weird happens. You can also schedule it to run every an hour or so, until your IT provides a lasting solution to the problem.
It could also be a misconfigured GPO that is blowing away the mappings. Or a script that is defined in the GPO. GPOs are usually scheduled to run every 90 minutes with up to a 15 minute variance in either direction. That would cause it to keep breaking throughout the day. The script above would get you fixed but until the root cause is discovered you’d have to keep running it.
It could also be
It can be great many deal of things swept under “IT doing something bold” rug. 😜

Yes, that’s what I wrote in the comment.
Excellent, this script is simple enough for me to understand what it’s doing and will improve my workflow:)
