To remove the old Merlin drive mapping and then create the new mapping, follow these instructions:

0.) REMEMBER THE VPN!

1.) Check to see if you have a drive mapping to \\merlin.ecn.purdue.edu.

  • Double click the "This PC" icon on your desktop

2.) If you have a drive mapping it will be listed with the share name first, followed by (\\merlin.ecn.purdue.edu) (Y:). You will need to know the drive letter in an upcoming step. You can use the built in Windows Snipping tool ( Windows Key + Shift + S) to take a picture of your drive mapping.
