My data files are stored on network shares (synology) with a GB link. QCAD Pro is run in Admin mode.
While in my Windows browser all remote shares are accessible (Green), in the QCAD file open menu they are initially shown as not accessible (Red). By accessing a specific drawing file in a remote share, the share will open and turn green.
Same behavior using 'Open recent'. Always the message is given that the requested file does not exist, and the file is wiped from the 'Recent Open' list. Only if the share is first accessed through 'Open' with a random file, it will turn and a 'recent open' file for that share will open.
Drag and Drop from a remote share will never work.

Unfortunately, this is out of scope as it is very likely a Qt issue (QFileDialog).
If you are not using native file dialogs, you might want to try that:
Edit > Application Preferences > File > Open/Save > Use system file dialog (make sure this option is checked)
