How delete/disconnect a network drive.

[Guest]

I recently formatted a network drive that I have, as I was changing the way I
store stuff on my network drives. However when I re-connected the drive I
realised I had not disconnected it first. As a result of this I cannot remap
the network drive to the computer. Everytime I try I get the message.

' The network folder specified is currently mapped using a different user
name and password. To connect using a different user name and password, first
disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.'

Windows explorer shows the old drive there. When i right click on it and
select the disconnect option I get

'This network connection does not exist'

when i right click on computer and select disconnect network drive option it
shows the drive i want to remove however when i select it and click OK to
disconnect i get the message

' F:, connected to (there are 2 chinese symbols here), could not be
disconnected because an error has occured:
This network connection does not exist.'

Can anyone help me with the problem.

Many thanks in advance

You may want to use net command to delete the drives. This post may help,
