Disconnect mapped drive with "Reconnect at logon" setting on Vista
7,357
Solution 1
to disconnect, use:
net use Z: /d
Windows will not try to re-connect the drive when logging on again (unless the drive is actually being connected in a logon script or similar, of course).
Solution 2
NET USE /PERSISTENT:NO will turn off persistence for future network mappings. If you already have the mapping, you need to delete it and recreate it after to change the setting.

hakamadare almost 14 yearsmy experience so far is also that this procedure is not sufficient; i end up with the drive still mapping automatically.
