i have created two mapped network drives that I need to remove now. How do I do that?
I can only find a way to disconnect them, but not remove them completely.
My operative system is windows xp professional.

from a command prompt, issue the command

net use x: /d

replacing the x with the letter of the network drive that you are trying to remove.

Just right click on the drive and press "disconnect".

thanks for the suggestions.
LonelyWolf, the drives are already disconnected, since I no longer have access to that network, but I get a message when the computer starts up saying that it couldn't connect, which is annoying.
TheFormatter, I'll try your solution...

something I did made it go away or it did so by itself!?
when i was about to use your suggestion, TheFormatter, the drives were already gone...
So split the points between you two :)

I have the same problem, I'd like to try TheFormatter's solution but how do I get to a command prompt?

Neither TheFormatter nor LonelyWolf answers work. How do you get rid of the connections for good?
