3. Use Windows/File Explorer to remove a network location mapping from your PC by erasing its shortcut
A network location mapping is actually a shortcut stored as a file on your Windows PC. If you can’t delete it using the first method we’ve shown, you can try others. One of them is to use File/Windows Explorer to delete its shortcut. Open File/Windows Explorer and navigate to “C:\Users\Your_User_Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Network Shortcuts.” Your_User_Name is the name of your Windows user account.
In the Network Shortcuts folder, you will find all network location mappings. Select the ones you no longer want to use and delete them by using the right-click menu and selecting Delete or or by pressing Delete on your keyboard.
