Re: Network Drive Icon Opens "Open With"

Delete the file named autorun.inf from the network drive's root folder. If no such file exists, try this:

Click Start, Run and type:

reg export "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ex plorer\MountPoints2" c:\mpoints.txt

Then open c:\mpoints.txt using Notepad, copy the contents and paste it here.

For more information, see my post here:

"Open With" dialog appears when double clicking on mapped network drive in my computer:
