We have installed windows xp on many of our pcs. I have
previously used the private function to mark folders
private when sharing an XP pc with other employees.
However, here, that function does not appear when
following the procedure, (opening explore, click on folder
desired, go to properties, click on mark folder private)
No one in our lan group can tell me why this function does
not appear. Can anyone give any suggestions for why this
does not appear on Windows xp pcs and how to enable it for
use as we have many employees who share pcs and would like
to make use of this function. Thank you.
 
Using NTFS, and have disabled simple file sharing. Someone
said to take the groups everyone and admins off security
tab. But I dont want to keep everyone off the pc just have
the folders show as private if they try to get into them.
