Someone also developed a command line program to automate the share fix.

I have deployed the fix to run silently on affected clients, had them restart and now can browse to to \\host\c$ and connect via Dameware Mini Remote Control!
We are having the same issue. We have 700 work stations and about 100 of them have the issue at any given time. This is a big deal for us because we use PDQ to manage our PC's, which relies heavily on the file sharing ability.

It might be more of a Windows issue, but it's for sure related to the dell docking station (D6000). There appears to be a communication problem with the netbios between the dock and the Windows PC. I have no clue what I'm talking about beyond that, so that's all I'll say.

Like the previous poster, I found the same "fix". I had all effected users run this fix silently. https://github.com/filippobottega/Sh...ster/README.md They must be docked to their main docking station when they run it.

It rebuilds the binding of the network adapter interface. Basically it fixes the communication between the Windows pc and the Dock Nic adapter. The only issue with this is when they use a different dock, it breaks the communication again. Luckily, it reconnects when they go back to their home dock. Although, I'm still not positive the binding stays permanent.

This isn't a fix though. We swap docks all the time for one reason or another. Supposedly Windows 1809 will fix this issue, so I've been deploying it for the past few weeks. But it's too early to tell if it's making a difference.
