@JT-Moore Current workaround for now - the relevant config.xml setting needed (just use a post-install script for it or supply a pre-configured config.xml file to your users): networkPathWarningMethod="2" which means “networkPathAlwaysLoad”. i.e. edit this line: <GUIConfig name="MISC" fileSwitcherWithoutExtColumn="no" fileSwitcherExtWidth="50" fileSwitcherWithoutPathColumn="yes" fileSwitcherPathWidth="50" fileSwitcherNoGroups="no" backSlashIsEscapeCharacterForSql="yes" writeTechnologyEngine="3" isFolderDroppedOpenFiles="no" docPeekOnTab="no" docPeekOnMap="no" sortFunctionList="no" saveDlgExtFilterToAllTypes="no" muteSounds="no" enableFoldCmdToggable="yes" hideMenuRightShortcuts="no" networkPathWarningMethod="2" isFawSymlinkAllowed="false" />
