To share a folder 
1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Windows Explorer
2.  Locate the folder you want to share. 
3.  Right-click the folder, and then click Sharing and Security
4.  Do one of the following: 
•  If the Share this folder on a network check box is available, select the check box. 
•  If the Share this folder on a network check box is not available, then the computer is not 
connected to the network. If you would like to set up a home network, click the Network 
Setup Wizard
 link and follow the instructions to connect the computer to the home network 
and to turn on simple file sharing. Once file sharing is enabled, follow this procedure again. 
When simple file sharing is enabled, the following folders cannot be shared on the network: 
•  Documents and Settings (including My Documents) 
•  Program Files 
•  Windows system folders 
•  Other user profiles 
Advanced file sharing 
Computers that are running Windows XP Professional have advanced file sharing capabilities. 
Simple file sharing is disabled and customers can configure more options with advanced file sharing. 
Using advanced file sharing is more complicated than simple file sharing and is not recommended 
for home networks. Advanced file sharing requires customers to configure permissions in addition to 
sharing the folder. The options are: 
•  Share a file or folder 
•  Name the share 
•  Provide a comment or description of the share 
•  Set permissions on the share, including a list of users or groups and their level of access 
•  Configure offline folder settings 
•  Modify the settings of an existing shared folder, or to create a new share 
With advanced file sharing, all folders on the computer can be shared. There are a special set of 
folders, such as the Windows folder, that discourage sharing. If one of these folders is shared, a 
warning appears recommending that the folder not be shared. 
Advanced file sharing requires users and groups to be added to the permission list for the shared 
folder. After adding users and groups, security settings must be configured to permit access to the 
contents of a shared folder. Security includes the level of access users have to a folder. For 
example, users can be restricted to viewing the content of a folder only, or they can have permission 
to modify the contents of the folder. Folder permissions include: 
•  Full control 
•  Modify 
•  Read and execute
