Cannot share program files folder

great_0, on Sunday 9 March 2008 à 18:18:47

Hello,
I have a wired network here at home and am the only user on both machines. Both are XP pro with NTFS and both have simple file sharing turned off. I have enabled full control file sharing of each C drive, which makes my life easier, but cannot figure out how to share the Program Files folder. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Normally you can't share programs by running a program installed on one computer from another. Exceptions are if the program is a network version. Otherwise you need the program installed on the local machine. You may be able to work with files from the other installation.
All the above is by design. Multiple user versions of programs are more expensive than single user.

Just go to tools and then folder option, view and scroll down and turn off the "Use Simple File Sharing".Then right click on the Programfiles folder you want to share over network and share it and then go to permission and click everyone and then click full control.Then go to security tab and then click on add and add everyone from the list and allow full control permission.Then apply and exit.
