Fix For SLOW Network Shares


Over the past week my access to network shares has been incredibly slow –  viewing, uploading, and downloading – just awful.  The fix that worked for me was to make and entry into the registry.  Be careful now….

Go into Regedit.exe then navigate to

HK_Local_Machine System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Lanmanworkstation\Parameters

Add a DWORD and name it DirectoryCacheLifetime

The value should be 0

Reboot and your performance should be “normal”
