On my laptop I typically map several network drives to various directories on
my desktop at home, as well as mapping the printer. After hibernating,
however, the network connections are stale and I have to run my connection
script again (with "net use z: \\computer\share" etc.). The shortcuts in
the Startup folder do not run after waking up from hibernation. Is there a
place I can trigger a script to run to re-establish the network connections
when restarting from hibernation?
