Windows 10: net share: is the share permanent?

Local windows 10 machine. (home computer)

I created a share via net share (CMD). I restarted my computer and noticed the share is still there.

My question is, when using net share, are these permanent? I would think they would disconnect/delete after shutdown.

Windows 10 shared folders not working

I'm having the same issue - also if I do a Net Share in a command prompt the shares do not come up. If I add the share using Net Share <share name>=<share path> it works, but it's a pain to do for all of the, when the shares are already there.

 

update proplame

It happen with me as well, and somebody told me to connect my phone to the power and let it for few hours to refresh the license on the phone and it worked, but don't connect on the computer it must be on the electricity.

All the best.

 

They are permanent. They are also permanent if you do it through the GUI. You have to explicitly delete them - see this MS article: Net share

Why? If they were deleted you would have to share all your "Shared" folder(s) again every single time you rebooted which would be really annoying.

 

awesome, thanks for the help.

 

You are welcome.

For what you want you'd have to do it like this I guess Code: Windows PowerShell Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> net share TempShare=c:\temp TempShare was shared successfully.[/quote]
and then at some point later... Code: PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> net share TempShare /delete TempShare was deleted successfully. PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>[/quote]
