1.16.4 win bug?

#1 Post by unclecarmie » Fri Jul 30, 2021 6:13 pm

Hello,

Just installed 1.16.4 today on Win10.

Looks like this version does not see my network drives by letter.

I am able to use by unc path as a workaround. Just incase anyone else has this issue.

Keep up the great work!

The most likely cause is that Windows is not letting the newly-installed program (even if you were running a previous version) have access to various devices. This is part of the Windows Ransomware protections; you have to specifically allow access to programs that have not been signed by Microsoft as "safe". It kicks in on new installs.

Hmmm, maybe it was the first time launch?

I closed and reopened and it worked. Didn't change any other settings.
