| | How to share files on C drive I am having issues sharing files located on the C drive of my host computer. Both computers are running Vista Ultimate SP1. I have set up the sharing, but I get access denied when I attempt to access the files. Any suggestions on what I need to change to fix this? |

| | RE: How to share files on C drive This definitely works to give you unrestricted access across the network, make Everyone appear in the Security Tab, as follows: Right-click Computer > Manage > Storage > Disk Management then right-click the drive graphic > Properties > Security Tab > Edit > Add then type ‘Everyone’ (not the quotes) and below it select your preferences, e.g. Read or Full Control. Now Apply, OK, etc. to finish. "Kevin" wrote: Quote: > I am having issues sharing files located on the C drive of my host computer. > Both computers are running Vista Ultimate SP1.

| | Re: How to share files on C drive I have tried that, but will attempt it again, as I see that with VISTA almost nothing works on the first try.
