Re: Drive letters not disconnecting properly.

The network drives are simply not disconnecting any way any how when the user simply logs into the network, ie logging out then logging back in. A Reboot clears the connections and the login works fine mapped drives etc. work fine. From there if I clear or disconnect the drives using either explorer or a net use * /del the drive letters still show up but show up as disconnected,

I ran into this same issue recently - I feel your pain!

This WSH script will disconnect and then Map the drives properly:

http://www.ss64.com/wsh/drivemap.txt

Save it as DriveMap.vbs

'Usage
' cscript DriveMap.vbs <drive> <fileshare> //NoLogo

e.g.
cscript DriveMap.vbs H: \\MyServer\MyShare //NoLogo
