There is a little mistake in "NET USE" help/syntax message has a little mistake since probably quite a long time: seen in Windows 10 , 11, Windows Server 2016, 2019.  Hope somebody from Microsoft is reading this.

This is what we get on typing "net use /?"

net-use-syntax-message-error

The error is in the line

[/USER:**[**username@dotted domain name]

 

It should have been

[/USER:username**[@dotted domain name]**]

 

Thanks to anyone reporting this to Microsoft.
