Recently i gave my computer to a friend to take a quick exam, the thing is that he need it to use matlab, and for the test, he needed to use matlab drive connector. The problem is that, now, i need to use matlab connector too, but eventough i tried to uninstall and reinstall the matlab connector, my friend's drive keep showing in the connector window, is there any way to log out his account so i can use mine, i've tried several times to uninstall my matlab program and connector aswell without sucess, and i've tried to delete the matlab connector folder, but the problem still persisting.
Has anyone encounter this problem, is there any way to fix it?

It seems you are already on the right path. Accoding to my information uninstalling and reinstalling should do the trick and the stored information is in the following folders:
  • Windows: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\credentials\default_store.xml
  • Linux: ~/.matlab/credentials/default_store.xml
  • Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/MathWorks/credentials/default_store.xml
Additionally, if you delete the following file:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\MathWorks\ServiceHost\services\syncservice\config\config.info
When you reinstall MATLAB Drive Connector again, the configuration wizard will appear, as if you were installing it for the first time.
If you need help, please contact MathWorks support (the installation support team)
