File and Printer Sharing Exception

G

Guest

I notice that as soon as I share a folder, the File and Printer Sharing
Exception is automatically checked in the Windows Firewall. Is this the
correct behavior?

Yes, it is trying to be helpful and do some of the work for you, so this is
expected behavior.
