Windows 10 PE Unable to map network drive anonymously

Solution 1:

That's just how Windows 10 connects to anonymous shares: it checks some username and password to see if it is able to log in, and if so it allows an anonymous connection.

Apparently whatever part hides this from the user didn't make it into the PE build, so just specify a dummy username and password, like /user:user pass.

If you need to provide actual credentials you can specify a user and password like this: /user:DOMAIN\user *. The star will make sure you are prompted for your password instead of having to specify it on the command line.

Solution 2:

Doesn't seem to be a Linux issue, seems to be Windows 10 as I have the same issue. The fix I have researched seems to be this... example... net use z: //192.168.02/tftp \root: 192.168.0.2 /root password

I have not tried this will be attempting it at work tomorrow.

Solution 3:

I tried the same on a number of occasions. I actually never made it work using a completely anonymous connection but just supplying any user / pass combination seems to work out with shares that are configured the way yours are.
