Re: How to share a file/folder on E drive?

Is drive E: configured for sharing by the restricted user?

When logged in as Admin, open "My Computer", right-click on the icon
for drive E: and select "Sharing and security".

After I click "I understand the risk of sharing root...", I see "Local
Sharing and Security", and "Network Sharing and Security". Under
"Local Sharing and Security" it instructs me "To share this folder
with other users of this computer only, drag it to the Shared
Documents Folder." Obviously I'm not going to drag the entire 250G E
drive to the 80G C drive in order to share it.

Incidentally, the "Make this folder private" check box is unavailable
(grayed out) on the root and all sub directories of the E drive, even
when I'm logged in as Admin.
