Doesn't recognize files on network drive on Windows

[huili80]

For example, when i tried to edit a file with pathname like \\network\workspace\a.txt, it somehow tries to p4 edit c:\network\workspace\a.txt then get an error complaining that the file is not under the workspace root which is \\network\workspace\.

Can you try to enable the realPath experimental setting ?

Add this in your user or workspace settings

"perforce.realpath": true,

Tried. Didn't help. Still got the same errors.

Can you leverage AltRoots in the client spec to map the windows network drive? This is how the p4 client for windows or mac handles a unix based workspace.
