Steps to reproduce

Note: You are going to need a samba server.

On a Windows 10 machine.
Right click on This PC > Add a network location

Mine looks like \\mynas\notes

Create a new folder and copy some of your old notes (notes only)

Open Obsidian and Open the vault. Create an Attachments folder and tell obsidian that this folder will be the Attachments folder.

Drag an image to it. The image might load but after restarting obsidian the image will not load

Expected result

I expect the image to load on a Network location Vault.

Actual result

The images are not loading and it shows an icon of a broken Image

Environment

  • Operating system: Win10
  • Debug info:

Additional information

  • It seems to only happen to images… not PDF. just any type of image…

  • I was able to to solve the problem by “Mapping the network drive” instead of a network location. This make me think that the lib that obsidian is using to load images has some problem reading images with a path similar to \\mynas\notes instead of Z:\notes
