After 1803 was installed and set-up on the workstations, we encountered weird issues with loading of file attachments to each ticket in a very-extremely-painfully slow manner.
Doing some searches on the internet resulted in the following info -

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters]
values -
"DirectoryCacheLifetime"=dword:00000000
"FileInfoCacheLifetime"=dword:00000000
"FileNotFoundCacheLifetime"=dword:00000000
Once these values are added, browsing of files on the file server and extraction of attached files within our CRM are sped-up like there's no tomorrow!
Hope this helps some of us out there!
Interesting trivia - LANMan (LAN Manager) is the same application used to display folder structure/contents in a GUI environment before Explorer.exe (Windows Explorer) came into existence. This tool/software is theoretically in use since Windows 3.1! :)
