    Private Sharing folders

    Is there a way to stop other users from accessing my sharing folders through
    the C:/?



    I deleted the shortcut from their documents, but there's the main folder in
    the root of C:/ which I can't move or do anything with besides make
    shortcuts. Is there any way to make it so they can't get in to it? Please
    hurry, this is urgent...

    Are they sharing the same Windows User Account with you?
    Make them use their own User Account and password-protect your User Account.

    Or if you insist on hiding it, try this:
