  • There are Offline or Missing Virtual Drives with Preserved Cache
    2021/01/20
    Had a bit of a scare with a server that was displaying an error durring startup:

    There are offline or missing virtual drives with preserved cache.
    Please check the cables and ensure that all drives are present
    Press any key to enter the configuration utility.

    I was able to salvage everything though. Here are a couple, possibly helpful, links:

  • EnableLinkedConnections
    2020/10/14
    Some older applications, like this one particular FoxPro application I'm dealing with, have trouble finding mapped drives on newer computers / operating systems (such as Windows 10). So, we just need to edit the registry a little bit!
