Win 7 sharing driving me CRAZY!!
Hi All,
I have a small home network with one Win 7 64bit computer.
On this computer i have one user "jeff" and the default "public" user.
I want to share the music files that are located under the public user. However, everytime i go to do this all my personal documents, folders, etc on the "jeff" user can all be seen and opened by XP computers on my network.
Now when i right click all these folders and go to sharing they all show the padlock and say "nobody". In fact the entire Jeff user under c:/users shows a padlock and says share with nobody.
Yet every time i go to advanced sharing and turn on file sharing and public folder sharing. EVERYTHING in the personal users folders is exposed.
I have been thru this a dozen times and same result every time. I even tried using the sharing wizard instead to setup the shared music folder and same thing. Driving me crazy. Either everything for all users is shared or nothing.
