For some reason some mapped drives to a share folder on another machine stopped working. When I go into my computer to disconnect it, it will not allow me to do it. I also tried going to tolls and then disconnect network drive. How can I disconnect the drives? Its causing me issues to map to the real share with the same name?
Thanks

Try it from the command line:
Type 'net use' and it will show you something like this:
H:\>net use
New connections will not be remembered.
Status Local Remote Network
-----------------------------------------------------------------
OK H: \\SERVER1\Share Microsoft Windows Network
OK I: \\SERVER2\Share Microsoft Windows Network
OK J: \\SERVER3\share Microsoft Windows Network
The command completed successfully.
H:\>
Find the drive letter of the connection you want to remove (let's say it's J:\), and then type: "net use J: /d"
If for some reason there is no drive letter associated with the drive you want to disconnect, you can also type "net use \\SERVER3\Share /d"
