    If you currently don't have access and are getting an auth prompt, doesn't that actually mean you're not authenticated to those shares at all? (Or, to the server as a whole, really.)

  • Thanks @user1686 - indeed, if I do get a prompt, that means I'm not authenticated; apologies, the post was a bit unclear, so I've edited it. My problem here is the opposite - I had logged in previously, so I do not get a dialog prompt asking me for username:password - but I had forgotten which username I had logged in as. So what could I use, to find out which username I had logged in as?

    If you have saved your credentials then you can look them up in Windows Credential Manager

  • Thanks @Robert - I typically do not save my credential (so then, if I suspect I'm logged in under the wrong login, I at least have the option to reboot); however - good to keep Windows Credential Manager in mind.
