I've been plagued by this with many customers. I put a short cut on the
desktop that points to a file on the mapped drive. The user clicks on
the short cut and it connects to the mapped drive and opens up.
After that they are good to go. If the click on the short drive and it
can't connect for any other reason it will throw an error.
I am going to try the below solution. Makes sense. I have three
registry entries I need to add to every new application as it is. They
are regarding oplocks.

unless it's (ulp!) hardcoded.
What OS is the VM?
If you have to use a drive letter, maybe this:
