Network Drive setup

I have been trying to setup network drive on Windows 8.1 for a Box account. Initially it didn't connect so followed these steps here.

As soon as i enter the registry values(WDNP32,SnacNp,RDPNP,LanmanWorkstation,webclient) the box account gets connected.

But the problem is the registry values gets reverted back to original after a restart.

Why registry is not saving these values? How do i save it permanently?

Thanks!!!

I would use a logon script instead of manually messing with the registry.

To do a user profile script:

open:

%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

1. Right click, and create a new text file.
2. Edit the text file to include your mapped drive information.

For example, to map a drive letter M with the current Windows account

net use M: \\serverName\ShareName

If you need to use alternate credentials on the share, use the following format:

net use M: \\ServerName\ShareName /user:UserName yourPassword

3. Save
4. Rename the text file to "WhateveryouWant.bat" Make sure the new extension is .bat
