thanks for your answer i searched many articles but i dont know how use Delete Method of the Win32_Share Class when i use this cose:

Dim dir As String = fpath

    Directory.CreateDirectory(dir)

    'Create a ManagementClass Object

    Dim managementClass As New ManagementClass("Win32\_Share")

    ' Create ManagementBaseObjects for in and out parameters

    Dim inParams As ManagementBaseObject = managementClass.GetMethodParameters("Delete")

    Dim outParams As ManagementBaseObject

    ' Set the input parameters

    inParams("Description") = fname

    inParams("Name") = fname
    inParams("Path") = dir

    inParams("Type") = &H0

    ' Invoke the method on the ManagementClass object

    outParams = managementClass.InvokeMethod("Create", inParams, Nothing)

    'Confirm that the operation is successful

    If CUInt(outParams.Properties("ReturnValue").Value) <> 0 Then



        Throw New Exception("Unable to share the directory.")
    End If

    MessageBox.Show("Folder share deleted")

in this line: "inParams("Description") = fname" it has a error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object. fname is not null and has value
