[QUOTE="sphinxxikitten13, post: 81233"] I finally Figured out how to share regular folders under Windows Vista. When I go to share any folders under Computer > C Drive > Programs I can't share the folder. The button to share is greyed out (so I can't click it). Any suggestions as to what I need to do about that? All of my filesharing options are ON, and I can share other folders (From Desktop or My Docs etc). I can access advanced sharing on my C-drive or program files, but not the regular share that allows me to set users. And this seems to be whats stopping me from accessing the folder from other computers. I tried sharing the entrie C Drive, same problem. I also checked the permissions under the security tab, and they are set to full control so there are no limits on the C drive or my program folder. [/QUOTE]
