Clear credential cache in XP?

[fubak]

I have an Explorer window open on my client PC. I browsed to a Windows share and entered credentials. I changed the permissions on the share after that, but it doesn't seem to be reflected on my client end.

I would like to 'log out' then log back into the share to refresh. Is it possible to clear the cached credentials to a Windows file share?

Have you looked in Control Panel > User Accounts > Advanced tab > Manage Passwords and see if your stored credentials are in there?

Drop to a command prompt (start, run, CMD.exe) and type "Net Use"

You'll see a list of each server you're connected too -- not just mapped drives. For each connection you want to "clear", type

Net Use "as shown in net use command" /d

It should remove it. To be sure, type "net use" again, and the entry should be gone.
