Hello,
My initial thread : https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/651ed135-e72a-4371-838e-a8670c5070c2/windows-10-offline-network-drive-nightmare?forum=win10itpronetworking
To summarize :
My problem only happens on W10 (no matter the hardware / domain joined or not / software installed / build version) AND with a network drive mapped to the cluster nameof our 2012R2 file servers (works ok with a drive mapped directly to any node of the cluster).
Here is the problem : when a workstation has a network drive mounted and is disconnected from network (unplug the cable), the OS is constantly trying to reach out for the file server instead of marking the drive as disconnected after a few attempts. The pc becomes slow and irresponsive until the network comes back. Since we have for example Word configured to save files in the network drive by default, users are unable to save a document because word is just waiting forever for the network drive to become accessible again.
Regards
