Letter mapped to a folder. How to delete?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I mapped the drive letter L: to D:/Downloads. I no longer have a D: drive,

but the L: drive remains in My Computer. This is not a network share, so I

can't use Disconnect.

 

How can I remove the L: drive from my PC?

If this is not a network share, how did you map it? Is it a

substitution? If so then you can undo it like so:

 

- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}

- Type this command:

subst L: /d {Enter}

 

Or, if it is a network share:

net use L: /del {Enter}

net share D:\Downloads /del {Enter}

 

Note the direction of the slashes. Some are forward

slashes, some are backslashes.
