Getting credentials prompt for local intranet sites and share drive after connecting to Remote VPN

Solution:

Locate the .pbk file associated with your VPN connection (%AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Network\Connections\PBK\rasphone.pbk for user VPNs) or (%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk for system VPNs).

Right-click on the VPN's .pbk file and open it with Notepad. (Remember to untick 'Always use this program for this file type')

Roughly 5 lines down will be an entry 'UseRasCredentials=1'

Change this to 'UseRasCredentials=0'

Save the file.
