// Why Windows refuses the right password — and the one line that fixes it
You open \\192.168.89.100\D$, Windows asks for a username and password, you type the
right one… and it says no. The password is not the problem. Windows is.
Here is the real reason, and a single line to paste that clears it in about five seconds.

Why it really fails.
Windows only lets you log in to a server one way at a time. Your PC is already talking to
that same server for the Downloads folder (the one Bambu Studio uses). So when you try to
open the D: drive as a different user, Windows quietly refuses — and it blames the password.
On top of that, your PC may still be holding an old password it saved months ago and
keeps trying that one instead of the one you just typed. That is the same thing that caused the
repeat lock-outs earlier this year.
The Fix // one line, any PC
1
Paste this into PowerShell
Do this
Click Start, type PowerShell, open it. You do not
need “Run as administrator”. Paste the line and press Enter.
Hangs up every connection your PC already has to the server — that is what was blocking you.
Forgets every old password your PC saved for that server.
Connects the D: drive again with the current login and saves it properly.
Shows the first few folders so you can see it worked.
If anything still fails, it prints the exact message. Send that message to Claude and it can be sorted.
3
Want it as a drive letter?
Optional
After step 1 works, this puts the whole D: drive on your PC as Z:, and it comes back
every time you restart.
Paste into PowerShell — only after step 1 worked
net use Z: \\192.168.89.100\D$ /persistent:yes

The two lines that matter
The order matters. The first line hangs up the old connection; without it the second line is refused
no matter what you type. Put ONFLEEK\ in front of the username, or Windows tries your
own PC's account instead. The password is the server login in your safe box.
Paste into PowerShell
net use \\192.168.89.100 /delete /y
net use \\192.168.89.100\D$ /user:ONFLEEK\OnFleek /persistent:yes
It will ask for the password once, then remember it. Tick Remember my credentials if
the grey Windows box appears instead.
Same server, different doors.\\192.168.89.100\D$ is the whole D: drive and needs the server login.
\\192.168.89.100\media is the same drive shared a normal way for the
media apps. \\192.168.89.100\Downloads is open to everything on your home network and
needs no password at all — that is the one Bambu Studio uses.
