My Network PlacesI have a user who has issues browsing My Network Places. When he navigates to
a share via this method, it is very slow displaying the contents of the share. If he navigates via a mapped drive to the same share, it is much much faster. I've tried removing old shortcuts that link to machines that may no longer be available and redundant shares, however this has made no difference. Any ideas? KeithMeister wrote:
