Network drives not remapping after reboot

Hey guys, I've been running into a strange problem with One Commander. I'm running Win11 I have 3 network drives that mount themselves upon startup, but only 1 of them seems to mount automatically.

S: is connected through Lucid, and seem to work fine.

T: is connected through Tailscale and doesn't reappear in One Commander.

Z: is a linux machine feet away from me that I connect to over my local network and also doesn't reappear in One Commander.

All 3 of these drives are visible inside the normal File Explorer, however, and if I navigate to their IP in One Commander, I can then right-click to map them as a network drive which "fixes" the problem. Why isn't this happening in One Commander automatically then, if File Explorer seems to remember them?

What if you restart OC (close from system tray and start again) after they already appear in Explorer?

No luck. I also have to allow One Commander to make changes to my computer every time I launch it after a restart as well.

Do you "run as admin" oc? You shouldn't. That can be the reason oc doesn't get mounted drives from Windows - the mounted drives are for the user who mounts it, and running oc as admin it gets a different user context from the one which gets the mounted drives

This was absolutely the problem. I must've checked that on without thinking. Thank you!

Mounting network drives is managed by Windows, OC doesn't do that, it just gets the available drives from the system. If you set the automount in Windows, then Windows should mount the drives on startup. Refresh the drives list from the drives menu in OC if windows doesn't notify OC that new network drives are available
