Stop Sharing a folder
Vista Home Premium
I'm prevented from stopping a folder from being shared. The reason I'm given is that it's in a shared folder. The path of the folder is "C:\Users\Bob\Music". I'm not sharing C:\Users\ or C:\Users\Bob\. So it doesn't seem to make sense. I have File and Printer Sharing "on". Can anyone help with this?

Stop Sharing a folder
Update: Even though the situation I described below still exists, when I
look at the PropertiesSharing tab it indicates the folder is NOT shared. A contradiction, yes? "Bob" wrote in message . .. Vista Home Premium I'm prevented from stopping a folder from being shared.

Stop Sharing a folder
Hi, I've vista home premium option 1 To stop file sharing, right click on the folder -- 2 options will appear one would be stop sharing & other edit permission for sharing -- choose stop sharing. option 2 To stop file sharing, right click on the folder -- A share menu is displayed -- click on Advanced sharing -- one more dialogue box will open --- uncheck share this folder. I was able to stop files & folder sharing this way. -- Chaitanya
