Click to expand...

Two possible solutions:

1. Share the Quicken sub-folder within Program Files.

2. Disable simple file sharing, which will allow sharing the entire
Program Files folder:

a. Click Start | My Computer | Tools | Folder Options | View.
b. Scroll to the bottom of the list of advanced settings.
c. Un-check Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended).
d. Click OK.
