    "Path does not exist" error when accessing shared folder on network drive


    For about the past 2-3 weeks, I've had users experiencing issues with accessing shared folders on the network drive.

Sometimes, the shortcut is created and works fine, but then randomly when they try to use it, it throws the "path does not exist" error. They can still pin the folder in File Explorer as a workaround, or navigate directly to it in File E
