"Special Access" <nonyadbidnezz@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:i8c0k15l8hbvl341hirpojqgopc61cc57t@xxxxxxxxxx 
my neighbor tried to run the network setup wizard and at some point
decided it wasn't what she wanted to do.
Now the "shared documents" folder is called "documents" and when she
clicks on it (logged in with admin-capable account) she gets "access
is denied"

have tried several technet articles concerning sharing over the
network with little effect.

Running XP Home edition.

Thanks for any info
