My Network Places
I have a user who has issues browsing My Network Places. When he navigates to
a share via this method, it is very slow displaying the contents of the share. If he navigates via a mapped drive to the same share, it is much much faster. I've tried removing old shortcuts that link to machines that may no longer be available and redundant shares, however this has made no difference. Any ideas? |

Network Places has always been problematic. Create shortcuts or map drives to the shares instead. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
