title: SMB Shares in Powershell
tags: windows powershell net smb

As easy as
```powershell
New-SmbShare -Name myshare -Path c:\path\to\files
```
and
```powershell
Get-Help Grant-SmbShareAccess
Grant-SmbShareAccess -Name Flibble -AccountName mrflibble -AccessRight Full
```
and to delete:
```powershell
Remove-SmbShare -Name Users
```
and using pipes (this can be used to remove multiple shares in one line)
```powershell
Get-SmbShare -Name Users | ForEach { Remove-SmbShare -Name $_.Name }
```
## SmbMappings
Equivalent of `net use`
```powershell
New-SmbMapping -LocalPath x: -RemotePath "\\turnip\e"
Remove-SmbMapping -LocalPath x:
```
note that the `x:` must be a drive letter, not a path.
