Check that you are not yourself "the guilty part". Close all applications that are running on the server, like Windows File Explorers, Command Prompts, PDF viewers, and anything else that you might have on the screen.

1.Open the Windows File Explorer. Navigate to the physical directory that corresponds to the mapped drive that you are using. In our example, that would be C:\CADETT (which corresponds to X:).
2.Right-click and select Properties.
