    How do I prevent a networked drive/location to hold up Windows Explorer file manager when I...


    I have Windows 11 on my laptop which I bring around. At home I have a networked drive have set up on my home network. The same at work. The problem is that every time I open Windows Explorer file manager there's a long delay while it tries to connect to a networked drive/location that isn't available. How do I prevent a networked drive/location to hold up Windows Explorer when I use my laptop in a location where the networked location isn't available? Is there a way to set it up so that it tries to connect in the background and do not hold up the whole application?

    :)
