Protected Share Can Be Accessed Without Cached Password (142235)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q142235 SYMPTOMS
After you connect to a password-protected network share and elect not to
save the password in the password list, you can reconnect to the share
without being prompted for the password after you disconnect from the share
or close the UNC connection.
CAUSE
The password is stored in memory after the connection is established the
first time.
RESOLUTION
Restart your computer, or log on again (by clicking Shut Down on the Start
menu, and then clicking "Close all programs and log on as a different
user"). This causes the password to be required before you can reconnect to
the share.
