Способ 1: Удаление временных файлов Windows
Ошибка под кодом 0x80070043 нередко встречается при попытке получить доступ к файлу, который расположен на другом устройстве в сети, либо же после запуска определенного софта. Наиболее распространенная причина связана с ошибкой в каталоге «Temp», где хранятся временные данные операционной системы Windows. Они автоматически создаются различными программами и самой операционной системой в процессе работы. Если временные файлы по каким-то причинам повреждаются, то появляются разного ошибки, в том числе «Не найдено сетевой имя».
Исправление ошибки в таком случае довольно простое. Нужно просто очистить содержимое папки «Temp», предварительно запустив систему в «Безопасном режиме»:
- Загрузите систему в «Безопасном режиме» одним из более удобных способов, например, через утилиту «Конфигурация системы» либо через среду восстановления Windows. Обо всех способах мы писали ранее более развернуто.
Подробнее: Вход в безопасный режим Windows
- Одновременно нажмите на клавиши «Win + R» и в окне «Выполнить» введите запрос
%temp%
, после чего нужно нажать на кнопку «ОК». - Откроется «Проводник» и все содержимое каталога «Temp» нужно удалить. Выделите все папки и файлы, используя сочетание клавиш «Ctrl + A», затем нажмите на кнопку удаления на верхней панели или вызовите контекстное меню и сотрите данные через него.
Чтобы удалить файлы в обход «Корзины», можно после выбор элементов нажать на клавиши «Shift + Delete». После перезагрузите компьютер и проверьте, исправлена ли ошибка.
Способ 2: «Редактор локальной групповой политики»
Если ошибка «Не найдено сетевое имя» возникает в среде домена, тогда стоит проверить групповые политики и при необходимости открыть доступ для передачи файлов SMB (Server Message Block), или для использования сетевого протокола для удаленного доступа к файлам, принтерам и другим устройствам или ресурсам.
Доступ к функции открывается с помощью «Редактора локальной групповой политики», который реализован только в Профессиональной и Корпоративной версиях операционной системы Windows:
- С помощью диалогового окна «Выполнить» (сочетание «Win + R») запустите средство, выполнив команду
gpedit.msc
. - На панели слева разверните меню «Конфигурация компьютера», затем «Административные шаблоны» и «Система».
- Выберите каталог «Вход в систему» слева, затем в центральной части окна отыщите и дважды кликните левой кнопкой мыши по параметру «Всегда ждать сеть при запуске и входе в систему».
- Отметьте пункт «Включено», если выбрано другое значение, и сохраните настройки.
После изменения локальной политики перезагрузите компьютер, чтобы новые параметры вступили в силу.
Способ 3: Сканирование на целостность системных файлов
Ошибка с кодом 0x80070043 нередко связана с тем, что система не может отследить местоположения объектов, что может быть обусловлено повреждением системных файлов. Это происходит по различным причинам, например, вследствие вирусной атаки или серьезного сбоя в работе Windows. В такой ситуации могут помочь предустановленные утилиты для проверки целостности данных и их хранилища – SFC и DISM, соответственно. О том, как их правильно применить, читайте в нашем отдельном материале на сайте.

Способ 4: Точка восстановления
Если проблема замечена недавно, тогда есть смысл попробовать откатить систему до того момента, когда все работало нормально. В этом помогут точки восстановления при условии, что функция автоматического создания точек активна, либо вы это делали вручную. Тогда все параметры, установленные приложения и другие данные, которые могли стать причиной появления ошибки, будут удалены, а неполадка исправлена. Существует универсальный способ восстановления системы, который подойдет для всех версий Windows:
- Запустите «Панель управления», отыскав ее через строку поиска системы или в главном меню.
- В меню «Просмотр» выберите отображение разделов в виде значков, затем щелкните по «Восстановление».
- Нажмите на строку «Запуск восстановления системы».
- Отобразится мастер и приветственное окно. Выберите кнопку «Далее».
- Теперь выделите точку восстановления, ориентируясь по дате создания. Выбирайте тот период, когда рассматриваемой ошибки точно не наблюдалось. Кликните по кнопке продолжения.
Если нужно, можете посмотреть, какие драйверы и программы будут удалены после восстановления системы. Нажмите на кнопку «Поиск затрагиваемых программ», и откроется список софта. Это позволит узнать, какие приложения придется инсталлировать заново, если нужно.
- В окне «Подтверждение точки восстановления» убедитесь, что параметры заданы верно, и кликните по кнопке «Готово».
- Нажмите на «Да» в отобразившемся окне с предупреждением.
Останется дождаться, пока система вернется к выбранному состоянию. Операция может занять довольно продолжительное время, и будет совершена перезагрузка компьютера, после чего получится узнать, исправлена ли ошибка «Не найдено сетевое имя».
