When using RadOpenFolderDialog, some people see their mapped drives and some do not. This includes people within my office would should all have their mapped drives created the same way.

Is there a way that I can ensure RadOpenFolderDialog always sees the mapped drives of the user?

Hi Nathan,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

This could be related to some restrictions for users that does not see the mapped drives. What you can do to test this is to use the MS FileDialogs, for example:

  OpenFileDialog folderBrowserDialog = new OpenFileDialog();
  folderBrowserDialog.ShowDialog();

You can also check if the user can open the mapped drive in Windows Explorer by directly typing the path.
