NT 4.0 policies do take some steps to remove. You can't just uncheck the setting and get things to work unfortunately. But I believe the reg key you're looking for is here . . . HKCU\software\microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Policies\explorer\nodrives Try setting the value to '0' for a user or two as opposed to just deleting it. Look in the 'volatile environment' to determine which user you're messing with. Have them log off after the change and then back in. You should see your drives. . . in fact, with a setting of 0, you'll see all drives on the system.

Angus I changed the policy to "Show all drives". Sounds like users registry settings are not being overwritten. If someone could tell me what keys set "show all drives", I'll create a reg file that runs in usrlogon.cmd which hopefully may fix it..

Did you specifically open them up or just remove the policy entry to disable them? Removing the policy entry will open them for new users but existing users will keep the previous setting. You should explicitly open the drives up again. -----Original Message----- From: Anthony_Abraham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Anthony_Abraham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 09 August 2002 09:01 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Local drives map but not visible - Can anyone help..... Hi Sorry to push the point on this but Ive had no feedback and users are starting to complain big time. Here is the issue. When users run File Explorer or Lotus Notes, they are supposed to get their local client drives mapped. This is set in connection configuration and also in user manager. I have also put in usrlogon.cmd a "net use c: \\client\c$".. The drives actually get mapped (I can see the net use commands being successful) but the c: drive is not visible. If I click Tools\Go To in File Explorer and type c:, the c: drive becomes visible. I have fudged File Explorer by using the following syntax: U:\WTSRV\PubExplorer.exe /n,/e,"c:\" By using the start in c:\, this makes the local client c: drive visible. I cannot do this for Lotus Notes - I need to be able to find out why the drive is not visible. If I use Winfile.exe, all mappings are visible straight away (I don't particularly wish to replace File Explorer with Winfile). We do run policies in our NT4 domain but nothing restricts drive letters. We may have restricted some letters in the past but we have opened them all up (unsure if users reg keys are not being updated). Does anyone know what reg keys are responsible for making client drives visible or have suggestions as to what may be causing this??.
