Hello everyone,
First of all, sorry for the late reply, I am on vacation and just got access to the internet.
Anyway, regarding the situation, I used this option "Interactive Logon: Number of Previous Logins To Cache" it disables the login cache for your windows, it worked when I first activated it, but for some reason it still cached my credentials after first login to my share.
I will keep digging into this and will update you when I find something new.
Cheers.

I don't think that setting does what you think it does.
First, Microsoft says that this setting is not applicable if the PC isn't in a domain. Second, it limits the caching for logging into the Windows PC itself - not the case where the PC is logging into another server. If the PC were in a domain, then setting the value to 0 would prevent you from logging into the PC when there was no domain controller available (for instance if you weren't connected to a network, or if your domain controller can't be reached over the internet). https://www.ultimatewindowssecurity.com/wiki/page.aspx?spid=ILNumPrev
