HKCUNetwork

HKCU\Network

The Network key stores information about mapped network drives. Each subkey in Network represents a drive that is connected to the computer and that will be reconnected when the user logs on again. The subkeys are named for the drive letter to which the drive is mapped. The system adds a Driveletter subkey to the registry when a drive is mapped and Reconnect at Logon is selected. The entries in the Dri veletter subkeys store data that is used to reconnect the drive. Table B-1 describes some of these entries.
