Sorry if this sounds familiar, but I have tried other solutions.
I have a new Win10 machine that loses access to AD network shares. While I can access them by IP, when I access by server name I get the message: "The specified network name is no longer available" (that's NOT "The network path was not found").
If I restart the Remote Desktop Configuration, Computer Browser, and Server services, there is no change. But if I restart the Workstation service (which restarts the other services), then the server name works again. But then when I reboot, it's gone again. I tried putting Workstation to delayed start, but the Service control panel wouldn't allow me.
I have enabled all 3 options under the "SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support" feature and disabled antivirus software. I am on a domain, and have the DNS pointing to my DC with it's DNS services. The servername resolves with no problems to it's IP. I have also made sure to disable SMBv2 on the workstation (the servers doesn't support it). The server is a Windows 2012 server with DC, DNS, and DHCP service.
Please note: I am on a Windows Domain, and the users 'Documents' directory is redirected to a network share. I can't just map the share using the IP address. I don't have this problem on a dozen other, older Win10 computers, just this new Win10 computer I am setting up. I've spent 8 hours on this.
So, please: How can I get my network shares by servername to work reliably on a new PC?
