NET Directory.Exists denies existence of mapped network drive when running as admin?

Mapped drives in windows are tied to a user context. A drive mapped to a account: UserA, will not be accessible to UserB. You could create the same unc path mapped to the same drive letter under different users though.

This has been discussed here. Apparently, in earlier versions of the . Net Framework the documentation explicitly mentioned that this is not possible ("The Exists method does not perform network authentication.

If you query an existing network share without being pre-authenticated, the Exists method will return false."). The 4.0 documentation no longer contains this sentence, but the behavior has not changed.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
