How to disable credential storage of network shared folders in windows clients (maybe with a .reg key or GPO etc)? (auto-login network shared folders)
Reason: I have a "shared network folder" and I want hundreds of PCs to connect to it, but it is essential that each time a windows client accesses the shared network folder, enter the username and password. Windows can not store these credentials. So, i need to simplify the process.
I try this .reg key and doesn't work:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\lsa\disabledomaincreds to 1
I try with this GPO and doesn't work:
Press Windows+R keys and type “gpedit.msc”. Hit Enter.
Navigate to the following location:
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options
Double Click on the option:
“Network access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication”.
Select the radio button which says “Enabled”.
I tried with this method and doesn't work:
Click Start >Run >type gpedit.msc
Check Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options
Check "Interactive Logon: Number of Previous Logins To Cache" (if value is set to 0 then cached credentials is disabled)
And these solutions are not suitable to be massively implemented:
Click Start > Run (or press Windows key + R) then type rundll32.exe keymgr.dll, KRShowKeyMgr
or this one:
net use \\server\fileshare /username:domain\user1
net use \\fileserver\fileshare /username:domain\user2
Note:
The PCs are not in a "domain" (they are in a WORKGROUP).
There is no firewall or other active security measure in Windows clients
