That's what I've been trying, but the net use command, when run at logon, doesn't execute early enough to get in "ahead" of the write to the share, sadly.
In order to get it done for new users was the rationale around seeing if I could get it in the default profile, but unfortunately sysprep seems to remove saved passwords (although not usernames, oddly) So net use works, but somehow I need to get it to execute earlier than seems possible at the moment, hence trying to think of a different approach...

But I’ve had people executing the “net use /persist” from a batch file (or sending around an intern to do it). From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Rankin Sent: Thursday, March 16, 2017 3:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [NTSysADM] Persisting access to an Azure shared folder I have a shared folder set up in Azure which can be mapped via SMB. You can access this by a “net use” command which specifies a username and password. However I want all of my users to be able to write out to this share, but I need the access to be available from quite early in the logon process (I’m writing some user-specific configuration files out to the share during user logon). How can I give *all* users access to this area? I thought I could use Audit Mode to create a custom default user profile that already has supplied the username and password and saved them into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Credentials, but set up in this way it still prompts for a username and password and henceforth the write to the Azure share fails with an Access Denied error. Any ideas? Or should I really be standing up some Windows file servers in Azure along with some proper AD authentication? All suggestions gratefully welcomed… Cheers, [cid:[email protected]] [cid:[email protected]] [cid:[email protected]] James Rankin CTA ACA EUC Solutions Architect Howell Technology Group Office: 0191 4813446 Mobile: 07809 668579 Email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.htguk.com<http://www.htguk.com/> | Twitter<https://twitter.com/htguk> | Linkedin<https://www.linkedin.com/in/markhtg> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/HTGUK> COMPANY INFORMATION Howell Technology Group Ltd is a limited company registered in England with registered number 5520670 and VAT registered number GB 862 666 004.
