Additional Information

Duplicate of BUG-000092590: The issue described in this BUG are another scenario for an underlying issue that also results in the observed failures described in BUG-000092590. We will include these steps as another test case to ensure any fixes we install will satisfy both cases.

Workaround

When replacing the path of the mapped network drive with the local file path. Click on Replace or Replace all before clicking on OK. The changes would be reflected in copy of the MXD. If the directory structure differs between the local drive and the network location, everything works as expected
