Windows 10 does not reconnect to mapped network drives

Netlogon service doesn’t affect.

Solution:

as Startup script:

C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -NonInteractive -NoLogo -File C:\Users\Vady\Documents\ReconnectNetworkDrivesAtStartup.ps1

Oneliner to Create Task via PowerShell 3.0+ (Grant Elevated Privileges):

$PS1file = '{0}\ReconnectNetworkDrivesAtStartup.ps1' -f [Environment]::GetFolderPath("MyDocuments");Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://gist.github.com/anderssonjohan/8d3f958f29b4ae5c7802/raw' -OutFile $PS1file;Register-ScheduledTask -TaskName 'ReconnectNetworkDrivesAtStartup' -Description 'http://stackoverflow.com/a/29373760' -Trigger (New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtLogOn -User "$env:USERDOMAIN\$env:USERNAME") -Action (New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -Argument "-WindowStyle Hidden -NonInteractive -NoLogo -File $PS1file")

PS. For Win7/8 via app: MapDrive.exe (.NET Framework 2.0)

Powershell: Mirror [Win] builds of Adobe’s Flash Player

or a bit simpler one-line:
$out = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("Desktop") + "\Adobe Flash Player"; $c = New-Object System.Net.WebClient; @('install_flash_player_ax.exe','install_flash_player.exe','install_flash_player_ppapi.exe') | %{ $c.DownloadFile("https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/$_", "$out\$_") }
