When I am done using mydomain\admin credentials to view \\JanesCPU\c$ I want to remove the credentials
As the administrator for our MS Server 2016 Essentials network, I sometimes need to view coworkers c drive.
I simply use WinKey R > \\JanesCpu\c$ and supply my network admin credentials.
For the rest of the day I can view JanesCpu without supplying the credentials.
Clearly the admin credentials are being saved somewhere, but where are they, and how can I delete them when I am done?

Log into Control Panel, Credential Manager and delete the credential. That works for me.

I'm not sure what to do. I don't see anything that looks like a credential for JanesCPU or for mydomain\admin

Normally users credentials are stored but in this case they appear to be cached so restart as suggested above to clear them
It is called "cached credentials" and is easily cleared like this:
Start > Run > cmd (as administrator)> net use * /DELETE
This will clear the administrator credentials in the computer you are working on. (the one that accesses the remote computer (jane's))
Start > Run > cmd (as administrator)> net use * /DELETE
This will clear the administrator credentials in the computer you are working on. (the one that accesses the remote computer (jane's))

cmd as adminstrator > net use * /delete
says "there are no entries on the list".
I am still able to browse to \\Janescpu\c$ with no credentials.
Yes, restarting my computer works, but that is not ideal. I often have a bunch of stuff open on my desktop, and I don't want to close it.
Is there anyway to revoke the session ticket?

Cached credentials just need a restart or log off to clear. May not be ideal but it definitely works

BINGO !!! Restarting Workstation service pitches the session ticket, and only takes 10 seconds to do. Far better than logging off.
It was a minor issue, but I am grateful for an easy solution.
