Cannot turn off "Public Folder Sharing" for public network
I have two network cards in my PC. One of them connects to the internet while the other connects to my home network.
The issue is enabling public folders for the home network in "Network and Sharing Center" enables public folders for the public network also. In other words Windows grants permission to people on the internet to access my c:\users\Public folder.
Disabling public folders under public network settings disables public folders for the home network also, preventing people on my local area network from accessing my PC.
