About this tag
The tag ms-rap refers to the Microsoft Remote Access Protocol, which was used in older Windows versions for network sharing. In Windows 7, MS-RAP was deprecated, causing compatibility issues with legacy media player devices that rely on this protocol for accessing shared files. Users report that devices like the Technisat media player can access shares on Vista, Android, and Linux systems but fail on Windows 7 due to the missing MS-RAP support.

This tag covers troubleshooting network share access problems related to MS-RAP deprecation in Windows 7.
