To link to a UNC path from an HTML document, use file:///// (yes, that’s five slashes). file://///server/path/to/file.txt Note that this is most useful in IE and Outlook/Word. It won’t work in Chrome or Firefox, intentionally – the link will fail silently. Some words from the Mozilla team: For security purposes, Mozilla applications block links to … Read more
In the end the fix was simply to re-map the drive letter while running as Administrator: net use Z: “\\vmware-host\Shared Folders” It doesn’t have to be done from the same PowerShell instance (or from PowerShell at all) – it’s just something that needs to be done once for the entire logon session.
PUSHD and POPD should help in your case. @echo off :: Create a temporary drive letter mapped to your UNC root location :: and effectively CD to that location pushd \\server\soft :: Do your work WP15\setup.exe robocopy.exe “WP15\Custom” /copyall “C:\Program Files (x86)\WP\Custom Templates” Regedit.exe /s WPX5\Custom\Migrate.reg :: Remove the temporary drive letter and return to … Read more

The way to solve your problem is to use a Win32 API called WNetUseConnection. Use this function to connect to a UNC path with authentication, NOT to map a drive. This will allow you to connect to a remote machine, even if it is not on the same domain, and even if it has a … Read more
Given that you’re trying to search a server and not your local system, it’s probably not related to indexing as you shouldn’t have all your clients indexing a file server. What happens on the system that doesn’t work if you login as a completely different user and try to search the sever? If you get … Read more
