Windows 10: Tweaking Save Menu to show "Network" as a save location?

I would like to save files to a Network location, but as you can see only "This PC" / Drives show up in the "Save menu" . I have already contacted the particular software's manufacturers and they told me its a Windows issue not a "this Software" issue. I have also tried making a shortcut to the location on the C: drive, but shortcuts also don't show up. Is there any way to have Network appear in this list? Maybe a registry tweak or something? Please and thank you

Photographs saved in camera roll not showing location

Hello

I, too, have lost this particular functionality.

I have the 950. At first, the location was saved with photos, but no longer.

I have reviewed all the privacy and location settings I can think of. Everything is enabled. I have tried the soft reset suggested by Jose, and that has made no difference.

Here's the settings I've checked:

• Privacy Settings
  • Location Settings
    • Location = "on"
    • Relevant Apps set to access location:
      • Blink
      • Camera
      • Cortana
      • Lumia Creative Studio
      • Lumia Motion Data
  • Camera Settings
    • Let apps use my camera = "on"
  • Background Apps Settings
    • Windows Camera = "On"

I can't find anything else that affects the camera and its access to location data.

Can anyone help?

 

applications do not remember previous save locations

Hi Clifferton,

Based on the details that you have provided, there is a way for you to determine whether the save location issue is program-related or due to the Windows 10 upgrade. To help you isolate it, we suggest testing other programs or apps and see if the previous
save location shows when saving files. If the issue only happens with a specific program, then we encourage you contact the manufacturer for better guidance about their product.

If the the issue also happens to other programs or apps, we would appreciate if you can provide us additional details to help us provide the appropriate solution: Kindly answer the following:

• What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
• Aside from upgrading, have you also made any recent changes to your PC?
• What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

We hope to hear from you soon.
