i have created two mapped network drives that I need to remove now. How do I do that?

from a command prompt, issue the command

net use x: /d

replacing the x with the letter of the network drive that you are trying to remove.

Just right click on the drive and press "disconnect".

thanks for the suggestions.
LonelyWolf, the drives are already disconnected, since I no longer have access to that network, but I get a message when the computer starts up saying that it couldn't connect, which is annoying.
TheFormatter, I'll try your solution...

Neither TheFormatter nor LonelyWolf answers work. How do you get rid of the connections for good?
