You say the situation got worse than before even without ever using the ::lognetworkaccess method?

I think so. I just tried it again without running ::lognetwork access and I got this.

Both locations are available?

Another question. Can you reconnect your mapped drives by doing Tools / Tools Special / Reconnect All Mapped Network Drives?

No. Nothing happens with that menu item. I tried several times.

The ONLY way (so far) I am able to get access to the mapped drive in XY is. Bring up my old file explorer x2 - navigate to the mapped drive - fill in the windows credentials dialog that pops up then bring up XY and feel the love.

OK, I tried to fix it all! (But my hopes are tiny...)

You did it!!!! It doesn't even ask for creds like x2 did - it just works like it should.

I didn't need to run "Reconnect All Mapped Drives". Initially the drive came up "Not Available" but I waited a few more seconds and reclicked in the tree - voila - there was the mapped drive!!!

Sweet. Thanks!

WOW! Nice surprise!

Just for the record: Does "Reconnect All Mapped Drives" work now maybe as well?

I just tried "reconnect" (with the drive already mapped ) and nothing happened. I tried disconnect drive - nothing.

I will try after a reboot and see if I get the same results.

Not sure whether this is related or not (could be more related to http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3575) but below are views of 'My Network Places' in Explorer (top) and XYplorer (bottom):As seen, there is some discrepancy between the two views. In Explorer view, the folders under 'My Network Places' are linked to my Active Directory login, so as soon as those credentials are authenticated those folders appear. One is a shared network folder and the other ones (with a globe in icons) are web folders to content on the Sharepoint server. XY's list appears to show only list of machines seeing which doesn't require authentication.

Yep, has always been like this in XY. Same as having MyComputer as top node and Desktop below (Explorer has it vice versa). On both points I'm proud and tough: Who doesn't like this should go to another file manager.

I just tried (by accident) to navigate (from the tree) to an empty CD/DVD drive and I get the "Location Currently Not Available" message in the list. XY then proceeds to propagate the message to all tabs and panes as I click on them or navigate to other folders. The only way to clear it is close XY and restart.

See Admin's reply to my post at top of this page for a screenshot.

On the plus side - Drive mapping is still fantastic!

I wonder how you do that. Can't reproduce.

It must have something to do with w7. I can reproduce this everytime without fail. Is there any other w7 users that can test this.

Ok forget the w7 thing - I just copied my whole XY dir over to my WinXP virtual machine and I get the SAME results. Something in my XY config perhaps. Will keep testing.

It is something with my xy config. I installed a brand spanking new version in my virtual machine and I can't reproduce. I am slowly starting to introduce my config settings to try and reproduce it.

Zip the thing and send me per email: http://www.xyplorer.com/contact.htm

No need I found it after going through all my configs. Lock the tree - bingo everytime.
