How to speed up the drive mapped persistent unavailable timeout?

I have a mapped drive on my laptop that is only accessible when I am connected to my work VPN.

If I'm not on the VPN or connected to the internet, open "My computer" or by searching for the results equivalent directory in a timeout, two Windows waits to try to access the drive.

It is extremely annoying, because it takes time interminably long to determine that the drive is not accessible. How can I reduce this time? Is there a registry key, that I can change or some other parameter?

Thank you

Richard

Hi Richard,

Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT audience Pro on TechNet, the machine is connected to the virtual private network (VPN).

Please ask your question in the Forums Pro Windows XP IT.

    In windows 7 Professional 64-bit. How to speed up the removal of the files. It takes 1.5 to 3.5 minutes to remove a file

    Before I give you a sensible answer in the following paragraphs, why don't you try not to create a new admin user account & try that.  I have absolutely no logic behind this suggestion, it's just that I've seen some strange symptoms in the other forum posts that have later been attributed to user profile problems and the test would take less than the time of deleting a single file without talking about relocation.

    Resettlement is a pain in the neck, so anything that resolves things without this point is worth.  Mine took me several days more sorting over several problems of McAfee.

    If the Dell disk is labeled 'réinstallation DVD' then he will do what is necessary because this is a full version of a Windows DVD installation [this is also what I have for them and that I used recently to reinstall from scratch].  Anyway, boot it from the disc only is not a destructive or dangerous act then you might try & see if the menus & options for the "repair installation" appear or not.  Just escape before you tell it to do anything then use again when you've prepared everything [backups, etc.].

    Your safe mode test confirms that Windows is at fault and not a third-party on your PC application.  The result of the safe mode is in fact a good result because this means that when you set Windows & malicious programs, you should be fine.

    Using the SpiritX AV cleaning tips will help you see if the malware is what corrupted Windows or if Windows comes to decide absolutely bloody & wreck itself.  If it is malware, so you still need to clean things up before the relocation to ensure that malicious software fails to cling to something during this relocation [I am simply repeating SpiritX here as I know nothing].

    It occurs to me that this Exchange did not once mention the Dell Factory Image Restore Partition.  This procedure is a little easier than relocation complete & it preserves the Dell-bundled utilties.  This is in essence an automatic & custom reinstall.  Before you begin this or even nothing else, in which case Dell did he not bring to your attention, you might not realize that Dell DataSafe Local Backup has a facility to make a USB / backup DVDR the Dell Factory restore partition .  This means you would retain the possibility to make a Dell factory restore in the future what you did with the hard drive in the meantime.  A disadvantage is that it would permanently replace the partitions that you have set up yourself [for Windows XP Mode or any other purpose] it really means return to the State wherever it was when you first opened the box.  My factory restore USB is 6.4 GB [Home Premium x 64 edition], but yours could be bigger - they advised me to use a 16 GB USB DRIVE as it was the size of the partition itself, then you can check the size to decide what USB can be required.

    I noticed that you talked to start in F8 for the repair menu or using a boot of the system repair disc. I guess you tried or had Dell try this for you.

    Good luck & patience.

    I used my iMac as a hard drive backup to my macbook once. Now when I update to El Capitan he says that it cannot be updated due to being of a backup. How do I change the drive mode so I can update?

    If you use your iMac as a backup to disk using Time Machine look for a folder called Backups.backupdb.

    It's what keeps you upgraded your operating system, you must remove it.

    Copy everything first if you are on a different drive. It would be wise to create a backup of the iMac on another drive also.

    Check system preferences > Time Machine and make sure that the iMac is not selected as the Time Machine drive.

    No you haven't, how it was labeled in the old pc is irrelevant, just install you it as slave on your PC drive, depends on the question of if you need to change the jumper on the drive. Some PC manufacturers require the rider to be set as "cable select" others as "slave" (unless of course, it's a sata drive that requires no jumpers)

    Once it is set, when you start your PC, it will be assingned a drive letter

    When I replaced a hard drive, I wanted the same drive letter, but he wants me to take another. How can I assign the drive letter, that I replaced. The letter is now used by another device?

    Open disk management, find the drive using the drive letter you want to use, change the drive letter of this to 'Z', find the new drive, change the drive letter that you want, and then change the drive letter of the drive you have labeled it 'Z' to a drive letter of your taste.

    • If you can open Photoshop, you can configure the scratch disk preferences in editing - preferences - Performance (in recent versions of Photoshop that is).
    • If you can not even open Photoshop, you can set your scratch disk preferences by pressing and hold the control and Alt keys (or their Mac equivalents) immediately after cold start Photoshop.  You must be very quick, and if you're fast enough it will inspire you as follows:

  • Photosmart B110: get rid of the drive mapped to Z

    My printer Photosmart B110 guard map drive Z every time the printer memory card is turned. It is very annoying and I want to get rid of it! I checked in the windows registry and finds referrences for editing of memory card and the address and all deleted, but whenever the printer reboots they show upward. I JUST want memory mapped to drive Z card! Disk management is also incredibly frustrating because it does not list the drive. This thing is the most resilient, unyielding and persistent thing I've seen in a while. How can I remove it?

    "Bill of Exchange assigned in my computer" - how? There is NO way to change the drive letter in my computer! Not right, not what either. The more we can do, is disconnect, and he'll be back. The closest that comes to this opens the computer management console and unassigning drive letters or redirect here, which is not possible for network drives.

    I have, after much experimenting, navigate to the key of registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\MULTIFUNCTION\0000\Device settings and change the key of the NetworkCardUNCPath, the removal of its value. I HAD to MODIFY the PERMISSIONS of read-only registry key, so that the wrong driver would cease to fill back in, then put the disc on my computer. After that, he finally stopped Z assignment for the reader!

    THIS ISN'T SOMETHING A WAY CUSTOMER SHOULD HAVE TO DO! For the love of pete put something, at least a command console, that a user can call to change or remove this drive letter! It's horrible to have a new disk, pushed down your throat when what you have actually installed was a PRINTER, and for that matter, to be recommended TO BUY an ANOTHER PRINTER if I want the missing drive?

    I have a better: how about change you the encoding of the driver? I don't ask for much, if I could do it with a registry tweak, surely you can do on your end without too much effort, too!

    I became tired to buy anything these days, be it a camera or a printer, any manufacturer, cause all I want to install is THE PILOT, and they end up grouping another two or three unnecessary programs with it. I went to the HP website for the printer and I got options that I wanted to download. I saw "DRIVER ONLY" and thought, whew that's going to be easy. Instead he ended up doing the worst thing any installer device has ever done for me: he stole me a drive letter.

    I will now assign a mapped network to the card reader folder, those who do not use drive letters. Either way, it's something that HP could have done themselves. I can now access the printer without it card reader devours a drive letter, whenever I need it. If all goes well, NEVER!
