	"plain_text": "Net use\r\nArchived: 2026-04-05 15:31:09 UTC\r\nConnects a computer to or disconnects a computer from a shared resource, or displays information about computer\r\nconnections. The command also controls persistent net connections. Used without parameters, net use retrieves a\r\nlist of network connections.\r\nSyntax\r\nnet use [{DeviceName | *}] [\\\\ComputerName\\ShareName[\\volume]] [{Password | *}]] [/user:\r\n[DomainName**\\]UserName] [/user:[DottedDomainName\\]UserName] [/user:**\r\n[UserName**@DottedDomainName] [/savecred**] [/smartcard] [{/delete | /persistent:{yes | no}}]\r\nnet use [DeviceName [/home[{Password | *}] [/delete:{yes | no}]]\r\nnet use [/persistent:{yes | no}]\r\nParameters\r\nDeviceName   : Assigns a name to connect to the resource or specifies the device to be disconnected. There are\r\ntwo kinds of device names: disk drives (that is, D: through Z:) and printers (that is, LPT1: through LPT3:). Type\r\nan asterisk (*) instead of a specific device name to assign the next available device name.\r\n\\\\ ComputerName \\ ShareName   : Specifies the name of the server and the shared resource. If ComputerName\r\ncontains spaces, use quotation marks around the entire computer name from the double backslash (\\\\) to the end of\r\nthe computer name (for example, \"\\\\Computer Name\\Share Name\"). The computer name can be from 1 to 15\r\ncharacters long.\r\n\\ volume   : Specifies a NetWare volume on the server. You must have Client Service for NetWare installed and\r\nrunning to connect to NetWare servers.\r\nPassword   : Specifies the password needed to access the shared resource. Type an asterisk (*) to produce a\r\nprompt for the password. The password is not displayed when you type it at the password prompt.\r\n/user   : Specifies a different user name with which the connection is made.\r\nDomainName   : Specifies another domain. If you omit DomainName, net use uses the current logged on domain.\r\nUserName   : Specifies the user name with which to log on.\r\nDottedDomainName   : Specifies the fully-qualified domain name for the domain where the user account exists.\r\nhttps://technet.microsoft.com/bb490717.aspx\r\nPage 1 of 4\n\n/savecred   : Stores the provided credentials for reuse.\r\n/smartcard   : Specifies the network connection is to use the credentials on a smart card. If multiple smart cards\r\nare available, you are asked to specify the credential.\r\n/delete   : Cancels the specified network connection. If you specify the connection with an asterisk (*), all network\r\nconnections are canceled.\r\n/persistent: { yes | no } : Controls the use of persistent network connections. The default is the setting used last.\r\nDeviceless connections are not persistent. Yes saves all connections as they are made, and restores them at next\r\nlogon. No does not save the connection being made or subsequent connections. Existing connections are restored\r\nat the next logon. Use /delete to remove persistent connections.\r\n/home   : Connects a user to the home directory.\r\nnet help   command   : Displays help for the specified net command.\r\nConnecting and disconnecting from a network resource\r\nUse net use to connect to and disconnect from a network resource, and to view your current connections to\r\nnetwork resources. You cannot disconnect from a shared directory if you use it as your current drive or an\r\nactive process is using it.\r\nViewing connection information\r\nTo view information about a connection, you can do either of the following:\r\nType net use DeviceName to get information about a specific connection.\r\nType net use to get a list of all the computer's connections.\r\nUsing deviceless connections\r\nDeviceless connections are not persistent.\r\nConnecting to NetWare servers\r\nAfter you install and run Client Service for NetWare, you can connect to a NetWare server on a Novell\r\nnetwork. Use the same syntax that you use to connect to a Windows Networking server, except you must\r\ninclude the volume you to which you want to connect.\r\nUsing quotation marks\r\nIf the ServerName that you supply contains spaces, use quotation marks around the text (that is,\r\n\"Server Name\"). If you omit quotation marks, an error message appears.\r\nExamples\r\nTo assign the disk-drive device name E: to the Letters shared directory on the \\\\Financial server, type:\r\nhttps://technet.microsoft.com/bb490717.aspx\r\nPage 2 of 4\n\nnet use e: \\\\financial\\letters \r\nTo assign (map) the disk-drive device name M: to the directory Mike within the Letters volume on the \\\\Financial\r\nNetWare server, type:\r\nnet use m: \\\\financial\\letters\\mike \r\nTo connect the user identifier Dan as if the connection were made from the Accounts domain, type:\r\nnet use d:\\\\server\\share /user:Accounts\\Dan \r\nTo disconnect from the \\\\Financial\\Public directory, type:\r\nnet use f: \\\\financial\\public /delete \r\nTo connect to the resource memos shared on the \\\\Financial 2 server, type:\r\nnet use k: \"\\\\financial 2\" \\memos \r\nTo restore the current connections at each logon, regardless of future changes, type:\r\nnet use /persistent:yes \r\nFormatting legend\r\nFormat Meaning\r\nItalic Information that the user must supply\r\nBold\r\nElements that the user must type exactly as\r\nshown\r\nEllipsis (...)\r\nParameter that can be repeated several times in a\r\ncommand line\r\nBetween brackets ([]) Optional items\r\nBetween braces ({}); choices separated by pipe (|).\r\nExample: {even|odd}\r\nSet of choices from which the user must choose\r\nonly one\r\nhttps://technet.microsoft.com/bb490717.aspx\r\nPage 3 of 4\n\nFormat Meaning\r\nCourier font Code or program output\r\nNet services overview\r\nCommand-line reference A-Z\r\nSource: https://technet.microsoft.com/bb490717.aspx\r\nhttps://technet.microsoft.com/bb490717.aspx\r\nPage 4 of 4",
