August 30, 20214 yr Hi all, I have a share called "download" on my unraid server, which is exported via NFS. My linux hosts don't seem to ever have a problem with it but frequently my Windows 10 hosts that have the share mapped as a local drive will see files instead of folders in the drive. E.G. there is a movie file that is 1.7 TB in size instead of a folder with multiple files. I can fix it pretty easily by disconnecting and re-mapping the share, but that is a real pain. I guess I could probably figure out a script to handle when this happens but I was hoping maybe someone out there had a better solution? I was surprised I could not find any other incidents of this in the forums but maybe it's a little tough to describe. Edit: Also when I go to disconnect the share, it says there are open files, is there a way to see what files are in use? I tried using fsmgmt.cpl but that is for outbound shares. Thanks!

September 1, 20214 yr Author Think I found the problem - if the connection is lost while a folder is open this can happen. In my case I had a dos prompt open on the drive which was keeping it from recovering properly.
