Windows 10 - change credentials after browsing network
Not an emergency but is there a way to cancel or "logoff" as a user used to browse network shares? I am not referring to net use or mapped network drives but just browsing under network. I browsed a network share as admin and would now like to map a network drive. However, since I browsed with the admin credentials, it gives the error "The network folder specified is currently mapped using a different user name and password. to connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mapping to this network share." when I select connect as a different user. It is not stored under credential manager. (It has now stored the persons credentials here but not the admin credentials.) I know a simple reboot would fix this but I am curious if there is a way to do this without rebooting.

Net use/delete will not work in this case, unless you use it like this:
Net use * /delete
which will disconnect all network drives (which is usually not desirable).
Net use * /delete
which will disconnect all network drives (which is usually not desirable).

When using net use it does show the IP address with a share of IPC$. I was able to delete it but I tried the other first so it is already mapped so I cannot test. But I think both ways should work. i appreciate both answers.
