Network drives are not re-checked when opening freezed tabs

Hi,

The situation:
1/ I turn on my work laptop
2/ Free Commander is in my startup software :)
3/ Free Commander sees that my network drives are unavailable (because they are)
4/ I connect to my corporate network through VPN and my network drives are available now
5/ I try open a tab in Free Commander that points to my network drive, but I cannot open it because Free Commander thinks that my network drives are still unavailable

It would be great IMO if Free Commander re-checked availability of network drives if someone tries to open a tab pointing to a network drive

all the best!

In the "Define Action Toolbars" function, there is a function called "Refresh Network", which appears to use the "Reset the cached server list" command (Ctl-Alt-R).

I have previously reported that this does not seem to do anything. Maybe it should be fixed so the network connections can be re-checked.
