Hi guys - we have an intermittent issue in Outlook which seems to be affecting all out users. When they email out a link to a network share e.g. \\server\share\file.docx the users get this error (i removed the actual share names):

Microsoft Outlook
We can't find '\\server\share\folder\common\_IT Procurement\Adobe licences list\Perpetual-user-Adobe-licenses-09-19.xlsx'. Please make sure you're using the correct location or web address.

P2: 16.0.10730.20432
P3: xyfcP4: 0x80004005


This happens randomly to different users on different days, usually the issue lasts the whole day and then the next day it's working for a few days etc. If you copy the link into file explorer it works fine, if you paste it into a word document it works fine, but if it is emailed in Outlook it produces this error (even though the same link in the same email will work on another day).

I am at a loss for how to troubleshoot this, I have tried different versions of Outlook, Windows etc. This has worked fine up until about December last year when users started reporting this issue.


Any one got any ideas???
