Rick Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 I have set up my laptop and desktop under simple file sharing and I noticed one very nagging thing when I tried to access my program files. I got a message telling me "All the options on this tab are disabled because this folder is used by the operating system" after trying to share it. I know what this means but does anybody know how to tell it to let me in anyway?Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Booger Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 http://www.computing.net/windowsxp/wwwboar...orum/34053.htmlI found that article that might help you.Another thing I heard was to share each folder individually within the programs folder to get access.. i dont know if it works because I have never shared the program folder.BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted September 18, 2002 Author Share Posted September 18, 2002 Thanks for the links Boogs...that link is cool...when you type in what it says...a password box pops up...I have no idea what to put there because I have never set a password for any of my accounts. But I think your idea of just sharing the folders individually will work fine...there are just a few progs that I want to be able to get into.Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
