What it does
Deletes temporary PowerShell drives and disconnects mapped network drives. The Remove-PSDrive cmdlet deletes temporary PowerShell drives that were created by using the New-PSDrive cmdlet. Beginning in Windows PowerShell 3.0, Remove-PSDrive also disconnects mapped network drives, including, but not limited to, drives created by using the Persist parameter of New-PSDrive. Remove-PSDrive cannot delete Windows physical or logical drives. Beginning in Windows PowerShell 3.0, when an external drive is connected to the computer, PowerShell automatically adds a PSDrive to the file system that represents the new drive. You do not need to restart PowerShell. Similarly, when an external drive is disconnected from the computer, PowerShell automatically deletes the PSDrive that represents the removed drive.
