I have a user who accesses files on a file server. It asks them for a
username and password. One user entered the wrong crendentials and
clicked the box to save the password and now they can't access the
files. Is there a way to undo this so the user is asked for their
credentials?

Try bringing up a command prompt and entering the command:

net use * \\computername\sharename password /user:computername\username

Replace the computername with the domain name after "/user:" if you
are authenticating to a domain instead of the local computer.
Make sure you are not currently connected to the computer before
entering this command (Right-click "My Network Places" -> Disconnect
network drive -> [verify no connections to target compter])

HTH,
John
