  1. Network drives not reconnecting after October Windows 10 update


    My network drives have been working great, UNTIL the most recent update. Actually it is the shortcuts to the network drives that will not work, even after repeated rebooting. The path to the network drive (example: \\My-Server\MyFiles) is correct. I can use the windows + R key (run), type the network address in and it works fine and after I do that, amazing the shortcut keys works as well.


    At first I thought I was overlooking something stupid like spelling or an incorrect address. That was not the case.


    This only occurs when going from a windows 10 machine to a windows 10 machine. I have files located on some old backup servers running Win7 and an even older one running XP. Access to those files is perfect either though a shortcut key or a mapped drive. Nor do those drives disconnect or fail to reconnect on startup of this Windows 10 machine.


    Any thoughts on what might be causing this type of connection failure? I will add that once I DO reconnect using the run command I can stay connected until the next time I have to reboot. Then I have to do this all over again.


    Both Windows 10 machines are Lenovo 90HV0005US x64 running under Intell i7-8700 @ 3.20 Mhz. The Bios is 03QKT10A

  3. How do I reconnect my file history drive

    Hi Mattie,



    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with Windows 10. I will certainly help you.



    This issue might occur if File History drive has been disconnected for too long.



    I suggest you to follow the steps below to reconnect the File history drive.

    Reconnect your File History drive:

    • You’ll see this message if your File History drive has been disconnected for too long. If you’re backing up to an external drive (such as a USB drive), make sure that it’s connected to your PC. If you’re backing up to a network location, go to
      Settings > Update & security > Backup and reselect the network.
    • After you’ve reconnected, wait for the next scheduled backup or start a backup manually by selecting
      Settings > Update & security > Backup > More options > Back up now.

    Please get back to us with an update on issue with reconnecting File History, we will be happy to help.



    Thank you.
