You might want to look at disabling SMB2 on the W7 systems. There may be more recent info about this out there but it might prove helpful.

Everything I could find pointed to MSoft's desire to reduce traffic on the network, so they have a fairly short disconnect time, like 15 minutes. (Not sure of the exact time, just surmising.) I don't have any problem with that. What does seem to be a problem is that none of the VFP commands would reconnect the dropped share. I tried the low-level command, i.e., fopen(), as well as adir() and directory()....all of them would just throw an error and the connection would remain "down" according to Windows Explorer. As soon as I clicked the share in the Windows Explorer window, VFP was happy and all requests for information from the share worked as expected. I may be paranoid about this, but I expect that someday, somehow, there will be an issue that VFP just does not handle with a new MSoft OS and the end will be in sight.
