List Directory is very slow

Dear All,
The 'List Directory' function works fine most of the time but can take
30 seconds to execute on some networked drives when other applications
list files in microseconds.
I am running Windows LV6 with an NT / UNIX network.
Any ideas?

The List Directory LabVIEW primitive tries to resolve any shortcuts in the directory. If there are several of them then this can take some time. It will take even more time if the shortcuts are broken. NI is aware of this issue.
