The Shared Folders (SMB) server service must be able to allocate enough system resources to function properly. If too many connections are present, the service may stop responding.
To perform this procedure, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

- Open an elevated Command Prompt window. Click Start, point to All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
- Type net session.
- From the resulting list, close any unnecessary connections by typing **net session \\**computername /DELETE.
