Default 'You could not stop sharing the selected folder'

I have two user accounts, one is an administrator. I don't want the standard
account to be able to view the data in my account. I tried to "un-share
folders but I keep getting this error message 'You could not stop sharing
the selected folder.' Further info says that this folder is in a shared
folder already, huh? It shouldn't be. Any answers?

Thank you,
Ed H

To unshare a folder, right-click the folder, click Properties, click the
Sharing tab, and click Advanced Sharing

Tried them, nothing. It's not in a shared folder. How do you run this test?

Thank you,
