Using
the Create a Shared Folder Wizard in Windows XP Pro.
If you ever
tried to create multiple shared folders at the same time in Windows XP, you
might have found that performing this operation manually can be time consuming;
sharing each folder individually involves setting multiple properties and
permissions. Fortunately, you can save yourself time and frustration in Windows
XP Pro by using the Create a Shared Folder wizard to perform such operations.
Here's how:
1. Access
the Run dialog box by pressing [Windows]R.
2. Type
SHRPUBW.EXE in the Open text box and click OK.
3. When you
see the Welcome To The Create A Shared Folder wizard, click Next.
4. On the
Set Up A Shared Folder page, use the Browse button to select the folder you want
to share, type a name in the Share Name text box, and click Next.
5. On the
Shared Folder Permissions page, set the level of shared permission you want for
the folder by selecting one of the following and clicking Next:
• Read-only
Access For All Users.
• Read-only
Access For All Users But Allow Administrators Full Access.
•
Administrator-only Access.
• Custom
(choose users and permissions).
6. When you
see the Completing The Create A Shared Folder wizard, select the Run This Wizard
Again check box and click Next.
