I have a problem with finding all mapped drives on remote computer from my c# code. I can find drives in registry (HKEY_USERS\< USER >\Network). Each subkey named "$X" (where "$X" is letter) responds to mapped disk named "$X" for < USER >. But how can I find disks without letter. I can map them in cmd like this

net use <path>

Disk mapped like this is visible if I type

net use

but it's not visible in that registry.

How can I solve it? I can't use "net use" command because I need to list mapped drives for all users under specific computer.

Such a mapping isn't persistent, is it? Why would it be stored in the registry? – Harry Johnston Jun 30 '17 at 10:21
You're right, it disappears after restart, I didn't know that, in that case I don't need to read it, but just out of curiosity, where is it stored? How net use know that there's such mapping – Jac Mos Jun 30 '17 at 11:57
Somewhere in memory. (In the kernel, probably.) – Harry Johnston Jun 30 '17 at 20:05
