    Machine Looking for remote drive that does not exist


    When I first got my new machine I hooked it up to my old machine and drug the user folders across the network. Ever since I did that the new machine will look for the old machine when I try to browse in an Office application and return error 1606.

    The device does not show up in file explorer.

    I have removed all references to the device in the registry.

    I have run a search for references to the machine from the home.

    Is there an Office location cache somewhere that I can clear?
