  1. can no longer map network drives


    Split from this thread. I have a similar problem, my Asustor Nas was running fine on Windows 11, had a bsod issue and did a windows reset keeping files and folders and now my network folder is empty sometimes, sometimes not. However, I can no longer map network drives and the NAS control panel cannot find the NAS, I can access it only via a browser. I have tried all the steps mentioned in this thread but still not working, the NAS is ony 2 years old so I'm thinking it should work.How do I determine what smb version my NAS is using so I can try the fix? All I can see is minimum and maximum

    :)

    Trouble Mapping Network Drive

    I have a WD NAS drive connected to my router and have mapped it on three of my computers. I just setup another laptop with Windows 10 and have updated it to 1809 and when I tired Mapping a network drive nothing is displayed in the browse window except the
    computer I am currently using. The drive is shown under network locations in File Explorer but not when you select map network drive and browse. I right clicked on the drive and selected properties and noted the IP address and went back into Map network drive
    but instead of selecting browse I entered the IP address but it still does not map the drive. The strange part is if I go to any of the computers that already has the network drive mapped and select Map network drive and select browse none of those computers
    show the drive either but you can select the mapped drive in the drive list in file explorer and it works just fine.

    I have read several articles both here and elsewhere and tried the suggestions but nothing works. Network discovery is turned on as is file sharing and also checked if all three boxes under SMB file sharing support in Windows features were also checked and
    they are. I have mapped several computers to several different drives over the years and anytime the drive was not listed it was always easy to go into Network Sharing Centre and find the problem but everything seems to be as it should so would appreciate
    if someone can suggest something I may have overlooked.

    Thank you

    Removed mapped drive no longer showing in drive list for a new mapped drive.

    I had a mapped network drive that was showing as disconnected and I tried the CMD (Admin) command mountvol /r which removed the mapped drive but now the drive that was causing the trouble no longer shows up in the list if drives I can mount. How do I get
    this drive back?
