A user at work called saying they could not access any network shares. He could ping them but not browse them. After confirming he could not browse any network shares I opened up the command prompt and tried to run net use to see what connections there were. It displayed the following error…
> net use > System error 50 has occurred > The request is not supported.
After some Googling I discovered there was an issue with a few registry keys. There was 2 leading comma’s in the below registry keys.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\HwOrder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\Order
I deleted the 2 comma’s and it started working.
