Question : Under which username am I connected to a shared folder?

With the command 'net use' I can see which connections are made to other shared folders.
How can I see under which username I am connected to each of these shared folders?

Some more catchwords:
credentials, 'Log in as', 'Connect using a different user name';'shared drives'; 'network drive'

The reason:
for my question ist that I connect from one PC to several shared folders on various servers.
Sometimes I have no write access to a shared folder because i am already connected to this folder under a user name that has less access rights, maybe only the right to read. Now I would like to see which user name this is.

Answer : Under which username am I connected to a shared folder?

No problem, you can install “WMIC” on XP home.

You need “Windows XP SP2” installation file.
Download it from Microsoft

Put this “Iwmic.bat” file in same dir as your “XP SP2 exe” file and run it from CMD like this.

Iwmic.bat WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe

Change EXE name to match your file name if different, this while extract all file needed to run WMIC

To start CMD window you type CMD under Start > Run

And sorry if my name is scary, it has followed me sometime now.
