    Map Network drive whilst signed via Azure Directory issue


    Folks I'm long standing Windows user and up to Windows 7 all has been absoluley fine. I'm now on a Windows 10 and I am pulling my hair out trying to connect to a drive or even to use workgroups. Its driving me crazy.

    So simple example on windows 7 this works for map networked drive \\192.168.1.4\share

    Asks for userid and password , I supply save credentials and from there on fab.

    On Windows 10
    • I have tried setting up credentials for 192.168.1.4 and get a message that the file or folder is invalid
    • I have used the option to connect using other credentials
    • I created a "local" account and this delighfully obliterated my Azure acount settings so I could not switch between logons. But the local account did work and the Map Drive was fine worked a treat.
    • So complete wipe and replace to get back to Azure as per my companies needs.
    • Map Network fails again
    • Checked all required services - seems fine
    • Even tried net use y: \\192.168.1.4\share /user:xxx password and this just gets the message A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.

    So how does one Map a local network drive in a Azure authenticated system.

    :)

    Windows 10 PC's configured for organization are unable to map to local network shared drives.

    I've run into an issue that seems to stem from the use of Azure AD / PC's configured for organizational use. Users logging in with their Azure AD credentials to PC's cannot map to our network shares, however if the user logs into an offline account on
    the same pc it can map just fine? What do I need to configure under the organizational settings that will allow the user to map to a local shared drive?

    You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016 which is your host.

    Azure and Azure AD are supported via the Azure Community and MSDN so best to check with the Experts at those resources.
