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
