Unable to disconnect about sshfs-win

[billziss-gh]

For example in you example drive Y : "billz@macbook-pro (\sshfs) (Y:)"
When I rename it only 11 characteristics are allowed. This is strange since the original name is longer than 11.

Interesting indeed, especially because SSHFS and WinFsp are not really involved in this process (when SSHFS is mounted as a network drive); it happens all in the Windows shell.

I think the reason may be because the Windows shell is confused about what kind of file system is mounted: SSHFS reports that the file system name is FUSE-SSHFS. Explorer knows about NTFS, FAT and a few other file systems. When it sees a file system it does not know, it assumes that it has the same limits as FAT. FAT has a limit of 11 characters per volume label, which probably confuses Explorer.

These names are kept in the Windows registry. I was able to create a longer than 11 characters name by editing the registry:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2\##sshfs#billziss@macbook-pro]
"_LabelFromDesktopINI"=""
"_LabelFromReg"="1234567890123456"

This is not ideal, but it appears to overcome Explorer's confusion about the file system's identity.

@DutchKillerbee are you saying that disconnect does not work even though you do not have Dokany installed? I have never seen this but there maybe another "network provider" other than Dokany that interferes with WinFsp. The advice of putting WinFsp first in the provider order is still valid. Try it and see if it works.

Can you elaborate what you mean by "rename the connection" in Explorer? Please post steps to reproduce.

@billziss-gh
Sorry I was not clear but my disconnect problem is solved.
I was using dokany. I simply changed the Network provider "priority"

Regarding the rename issue:
When you right click in explore on your just created network connection there is an menu option to rename it.
For example in you example drive Y : "billz@macbook-pro (\sshfs) (Y:)"
When I rename it only 11 characteristics are allowed. This is strange since the original name is longer than 11.
