Administrative Shares Disappear from Registry but Works

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Dear All,

Today I discovered something which is wierd and new for me : Adminsitrative
Shares are'nt anymore in the registry key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\Shares.

I do not have the Autosharewks nor AutoShareServer set to 0. In fact they
are'nt present.

By the way everything works fine and "Net Share" shows all the
Administrative Shares : IPC$ Admin$ C$ D$ etc.
I could MAP C$ etc...

severall weeks ago they were presents in the registry. Now they have
disappeared.

This happen on my two boxes (WinXP/SP2 full updated/patched)
I saw also at work on Win2K3/SP1 that they have disapeared.

Any explanation there ?
Could you look on your boxes ?

I repeat : Everything works as usual. Just want to know/Understand

François
