Letter mapped to a folder. How to delete?

N

Noozer

I mapped the drive letter L: to D:/Downloads. I no longer have a D: drive,
but the L: drive remains in My Computer. This is not a network share, so I
can't use Disconnect.

How can I remove the L: drive from my PC?

If this is not a network share, how did you map it? Is it a
substitution? If so then you can undo it like so:

- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
- Type this command:
subst L: /d {Enter}

Or, if it is a network share:
net use L: /del {Enter}
net share D:\Downloads /del {Enter}

Note the direction of the slashes. Some are forward
slashes, some are backslashes.
