That is fantastic, thank you. I will be on the lookout and test as soon as I see the next one released and report back findings.

Unfortunately, no change. If I put in "\\server\c$" in XYplorer it comes back with "Access is denied", having never prompted me. If I do the same in Windows Explorer or DO, I'm prompted for credentials. Note I did wipe out the Roaming>XYplorer folder so everything starts fresh each time.

I should also point out that the moment I put in the network related share, this comes up, CPU usage spikes, and it sits frozen for a good 15 - 20 seconds before responding.

Check your logged out path with the exist command:

Code: Select all

exist "\\server\c$";
What is returned?

Hmm, looks perfect. "Error 5: Access is denied." all over the place. I wonder why the logon doesn't pop. :eh: Again, I'll look into it tomorrow.

PS: if you do logon "\\server\c$";, does it pop?

If I do

Code: Select all

logon "\\server\c$";
the pop-up for login comes immediately.

Unfortunately, this is what Windows Defender is telling me. I have run ClamAV and it showed no issues, nor did MalwareBytes. First time I've ever been alerted in an XYplorer download though. I can't install it at this time.

Note that the .zip file of the beta does not throw AV issues.

Cannot do anything about it. Wait till the message disappears. Usually takes a few hours.

Using the portable beta of 25.40.0004, I'm happy to report I was able to navigate and input credentials for the C$ share. I will try downloading the installer later today.

One thing of note. If I run XYplorer stock and it comes up; I then ask it to go to "\\server\c$"... it sits there stating, "enumerating shares" for a full minute before I'm prompted for credentials.

I've found that I really need to check the box, Safety Belts, Network >> Network >> Cache network servers
in order to do things without startup waits or the like on the network shares.

Thank you for addressing this so quickly.

The enumeration has to be done, but a minute is extreme. It should be a couple of seconds at most. That's Windows 11?

Yes, Windows 11 23H2 build 22631.2861

Also follow-up; the Windows Defender issue mitigated itself as you stated.
