Windows 7 – How do I change the user I am logged in with on a Network Share?

When connecting to a server via Explorer (not a mapped network drive) even if the “Remember my credentials” check box is not selected, Windows remembers the password until you log out. Is there any way to switch user/password for a share without logging out and back in?

Solution:

Are you mapping the share to your system, or merely accessing them directly via My Computer? If you map the drive, then you can chose the link to Connect using a different user name and choose the user/password there. The ‘net use’ command will also allow you to access a share using alternate credentials, but not sure if it will allow you to browse the share without mapping it using those alternate credentials.
