My comments were for the case where you are hosting a share from Windows. I agree you can't delete (or unshare) a network folder hosted on another machine, though of course you can delete the files in the share if you have the right permissions.

If you use Windows as pure client, I really doubt that you could actually delete share on a server without actually accessing it from GUI or CLI... :roll:
