Lỗi khi kết nối với máy chủ. Công ty em dùng mạng LAN để chia sẻ dữ liệu, nhưng lâu lâu lại có máy tính khi truy cập thì bị báo lỗi như hình, ( trong lúc đó thì các máy tính khác vẫn truy cập vào thư mục này bình thường, em phải tắt máy chủ lưu trữ thì máy đó mới truy cập vào lại bình thường. Nhưng sau 1 thời gian thì tiếp tục 1 vài máy lại bị, ai đã gặp tình trạng giống vậy giúp em với ạ Show An error occurred while reconnecting to Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored. This is the kind of error users may face when trying to use a network-shared folder. It may also occur when users try mapping the operation of certain drives on a commonly shared network. Based on information collected from various technical forums, there are a number of reasons that may lead to this error. It can be due to unassigned drive letters, disabled File and Printer Sharing feature in firewall settings, insufficient space on the network’s host server, and even wrong values of some Windows Registry entries. It may be quite hard to pinpoint the issue immediately and resolve it eventually. We recommend you try each solution from our guide until the one that sorts out the issue is found. Note that some steps that you will perform require attention, so make sure you do everything carefully with no rush. “The local device name is already in use” error (sample 1) “The local device name is already in use” error (sample 2) Download Windows Repair ToolDownload Windows Repair Tool There are special repair utilities for Windows, that can solve problems related to registry corruption, file system malfunction, Windows drivers instability. We recommend you to use Advanced System Repair Pro to fix “The local device name is already in use” error in Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista, or XP. 1. Remap your driveThis solution is recommended by the official technical department of Microsoft. By mapping your drive, you make it available to other users that operate within the same network. However, if there is a problem like the one we discuss here in the tutorial, you can try remapping the drive once again – to be sure it is no bug or something causing the error. Here is how you can do it using Command Prompt:
After this, check if the issue got resolved. If not, move on to further solutions we have prepared below. 2. Restart Computer BrowserBrowser service (or Computer Browser Service) is a Windows feature allowing users to easily browse and locate shared resources on neighboring computers. It may sometimes become bugged and therefore cause the error to occur. In order to fix it, you can simply reboot it with Command Prompt, the same thing we used just above.
This way, you have restarted the Computer Browser Service. Now try using the same network-shared folder/drive again. 3. Assign the Drive Letter manuallyAnother possible reason why you may encounter the error is an improperly assigned drive letter. It may either differ from the one you have on the mapped network or be absent completely. Of course, in such a case Windows will not be able to identify your drive and present the message with an error on your screen. You can assign or change the drive letter in Disk Management, easily via the steps down below:
After doing these steps, check if the same issue persists. We hope it no longer does. 4. Enable File and Printer Sharing in Firewall settingsFile and Printer Sharing is an essential feature that ensures the proper operation of shared drives in the network. Having it disabled may thereby lead to synchronization problems and prevent the usage of network mapping. The fix is to simply turn on this feature in your firewall settings. Below, we will show you how to do this with the default firewall in Windows Defender. If you are a user of some third-party anti-malware software, you should find it out yourself where to enable this feature in it.
5. Ensure enough space on your root driveIt is important there is enough space available on the root drive of the server computer that shares access with others within the network. If you are running low on space, clean it up a bit and then see if this resolves the issue. There is no ideal amount of memory that has to be available for use, however, it is good to have at least a couple of gigabytes there. 6. Alter Windows RegistryOne more solution reported effective by other victims of the same problem is to delete a registry key called MountPoints2. This registry key contains cached information about every removable device that has been plugged into your system. While it is completely safe to delete this entry without being afraid of any negative implications, it is still recommended to make a backup of the registry – in case you change or delete something unnecessary by accident. You can also avoid making a backup, but simply be careful and attentive when applying the steps from down below.
7. Edit ProtectionMode in Windows RegistryThe last method on our list is also about running manual changes in Windows Registry. If the previous solution did not work out, you can try and change the value of ProtectionMode – some users reported it was sufficient to get rid of the problem. Here is how you can do this:
Now restart your system and check whether this made the issue disappear eventually. SummaryWe hope you no longer belong to the people who encounter “The local device name is already in use” error.
