NTUSER.DAT and network drive shareIs there anyway to edit the NTUSER.DAT file to correct a problem with drive
shares? Here is the problem - my department has set up a Terastation drive. If you setup the share in My Computer then go in to Network places and setup the same share there, XP gets confused and won't let you access through either. If you delete and try to reconfigure the share, XP can't find it. The only way is to delete the user profile and have the user relog in as new. As long as either share is configured, all is fine. Is there anyway to edit the file so that the share can be seen instead of deleting the file and all the bookmarks, settings, etc?? Neal wrote:

If this is the only network share, remove the Network Places icon from the Desktop from Display>Desktop>Customize Desktop. Open My Computer and use the Tools menu to map a drive to the network share. The new mapped drive will appear in My Computer. Right-click the icon for the new mapped drive and drag it to the Desktop to create a shortcut to the share. Malke
