tomtatsfield Posted September 19, 2015 ID:991020 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Hello, Recently I appear to have removed a drive accessed over my home network without ejecting the drive first, now this drive letter keeps flashing in my computer view, is there some way of correcting this? Any advice will be appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted September 19, 2015 ID:991064 Share Posted September 19, 2015 One does not "eject" network dives. Network drives are NT Shares and the data is not cached like removable drives. The NT Share is a "Mapped Drive" ( a drive letter assigned to a NT Share via a Universal Naming Convention ( UNC ) such as; \\MyComputer\MyShare ) In this situation, if you want to stop accessing the drive associated to a Network Share, you choose "Disconnect Network Drive" and the drive letter will no longer be associated to the Network Share. That is until the drive is mapped to a drive letter again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
