Issue with Pastel on Windows 11 I’m experiencing an issue with Pastel after a recent Windows 11 update (though I’m not sure if it's related, but i went on to uninstall the updates). On the same day, the client disconnected from the mapped folder on the server and started requesting a password. I reconnected it, but now: When I locate the server and add a company, the company doesn’t appear after closing the "Add Company" window. When I reopen the "Add Company" window, the server has disappeared, and the added companies are missing. I also noticed that when I add the server, the green tick (indicating a default server)does not appear. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Are you running on a peer to peer network or a domain, as I see with peer to peer networking SMB signature has been enabled and is causing the issue with the mapped network drives? Have a look at the following…

HI Albert

Have you enabled the Linked Connections from the registry, and restart the computer and then retry registering this workstation:

I figured it out—thank you! The issue was caused by the new Windows 11 build, which introduced security policies that terminated the mapped drive and prevented Pastel from registering. Rolling back to the previous build resolved the problem, but I'm still searching for a permanent solution.
