DormantFileLimit

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters

Data type Range Default value
REG_DWORD 0x0 - 0xFFFFFFFF files 45

Description

Determines how many files on each share can remain open in the redirector's cache after an application has closed them. If the number of open, cached files on a share exceeds the value of this entry, the system begins to close the cached files.

The Windows redirector keeps files open in the cache after an application has closed the file. This entry is designed to prevent cached files from occupying the limited number of places available for open files. By default, LAN Manager servers permit only 60 files from remote clients and 50 files from each client workstation to remain open.
