This command will show you detailed information about currently mapped drives and devices.
Please note, that the policy is being applied to the user level and not system level for shared drives.
2) Check if the group policy being applied to authenticated users or not on Pmm1 server, like below. Here the policy that should be applied is "NMC_AZ file shares"


 


3) Any new user should be added in this group "NMC-Az file access" to be able to access network drives
