Unable to select mapped network drives when selecting files.

Open bruor opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug (mandatory) Unable to browse/use mapped network drives with the windows installer release. If I use an older release I can run it from a mapped drive and it will work as expected.

Information about environment (mandatory):

  • Windows 11
  • Whatever is included in the installer.

Steps to reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install the software on windows
  2. Click on "select files"
  3. Mapped drives are not listed.

Expected behavior List mapped drives for selection

Did you see this issue in previous versions? Yes: but running the .jar file from the share worked around the issue.

I'm assuming that, for whatever reason, the installed version is running as administrator. Windows prohibits the user mount namespace to be shared with the administrator mount namespace by default. If you want to use user shares with admin programs, run the program without admin access if possible or look up how to disable this prohibition
