Why my attached files in documents are showing in their local path or share drive, not uploaded in the CM server?

I added a lot of attached files into my documents in Project Manager, but they never been uploaded to attach file  location set in CM administration. Here is the screenshot:

How can I make sure all the files are uploaded to the folder set by CM server?

Solution:

In your Contract Manager server: right click your project name in the left side of CM screen, then select "User Setting", and in the coming screen, uncheck this option: "I am currently connected to the file server", finally click "save" button. See the figure below.

User Settings

By default, the option "I am currently connected to the file server" is set, if you need to change this setting globally, use the method below:

1. Open a Command prompt from the Fileserver where CM is located.
2. Type this command:
    osql -E -S .\primavera
3. When the prompt for SQL command appears after the above step 2, type the SQL statments below:
 
use expadmin
update dbo.admin set can_access_file_server=0 where 1=1
go
exit
 
4. Close the Dos Command prompt and done.
