I have a C# application which loads at startup, and logs data to a network drive, which is mounted as X:
When the machine first boots, the application throws an error that X:\ is not available. If I restart the app, same error.
However, if I open Windows Explorer and double click to browse the drive, I can then run the application and it will connect to X: just fine.
Do network drives not automatically initialise on startup, despite being mapped? Is there a way to set them to initialise automatically?
