it writes:

" To disconnect from the \Financial\Public directory, type:

net use f: \financial\public /delete "

I can't delete successfully using this command and it will return:

"A command was used with conflicting switches. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3510."

But I can delete successfully by using the command : "net use f: /delete"

I'm not sure if the document is right or not.

    If the actual drive you're trying to delete is "F"

    then
    net use f: /delete
    is correct.. (dont type out the the share name)

    it will prompt you to actually delete the share (Y/N)
