2.) What should I do to avoid losing my network drive again?
If you lose the network drives on the PC, especially when restarting, and there is no error message, it is usually the case that you forget to check the box:
[X] Reconnect at sign-in (logging on)
[X] Reconnect at sign-in (logging on)
Then determine a drive letter that is not used, or overlaps with external hard drive letters
Unless there is the rare error message ►► "The network path was not found"
Tip: NAS and networks are not recognized on the Windows 10 computer (set up network drive)?
