Hello,
Thank you for posting in our TechNet forum.

To better understand our question, please confirm the following information:

1.According to our description, do we map our drives manually or through GPO (User Configuration\Preferences\Windows settings\Drive maps)?

2. Do all the users or only one user has such problem?

3. Do all the computers or only one computer has such problem?

Thank you for your time.

Best Regards,
Daisy Zhou
