Question: Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64
I was having problems mapping a local drive to a network shared folder, so I opened cmd.exe and ran :
> net use> System error 50 has occurred> The request is not supported.
I’ve Google’d this extensively and apparently a lot of people have this problem, but very few have found solutions. ?
I investigated some of root causes others uncovered , such as mangled registry key values at :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlNetworkProviderHwOrder
How can I further diagnose this issue ?
What could have caused a very basic system-level command such as net use to begin failing ?
but in those respects my system seems to be fine
Answer: Start regedit.exe, and change the ProviderOrder value in the following registry keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlNetworkProviderHwOrderHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlNetworkProviderOrder
from ,,RDPNP,LanmanWorkstation,webclient to RDPNP,LanmanWorkstation,webclient.
