How to remove a mapped network drive
Posted by Thomas Kroljic on January 11th, 2007


All,
Last year I created several mapped network drives. Now I would like to
remove them. If I go into Explore and "Disconnect" the drive, they are
appear again the next time I log into the server (via Terminal Services).
The machine that the map drives are on is a w2k server acting as a Terminal
Server (in application mode).

How do I permenantly delete, remove, the mapped drives? Do I need to
perform this task at the console while logged in as Admin or can I do this
via a Terminal Services connections (VPN then Terminal Services)?

Thank you,
Thomas Kroljic

Are you using a login script? (you should).

Running this in a command prompt:
net use * /del
will remove all drive mappings. You need to do this as the user who sees the
drive mappings on whatever machine you see them -

Or:

net use X: /d

....will remove just the X: mapping.
