Slack startup pauses on disconnected network drives on mac
On macOS 10.12.6, I have a network drive added as a Login Item so that it's available when I'm on the same network as the drive. It's also in my Favorites in Finder. If I'm not on the same network as the drive, it's inaccessible, that's fine.
What's strange is that if I start Slack when this drive isn't available, it will wait for a long time and then I'll see an error from Finder about the drive not being accessible. I think I have to dismiss the modal twice before Slack finally finishes loading all the way.
Is Slack trying to enumerate all my folders/drives and access them on startup? Is there a way to disable this?
