I turn off the sharing on my computer.

When I reboot the sharing comes back as C$

Is this a setting on the server that needs to be changed?


TIA

How exactly did you turn off the sharing facility?
 
Running XP Pro Service Pack 2

Double clicked on "My Computer"
Right clicked on C drive
clicked "Sharing and Security..."
Clicked the radio button "Do not share this folder"
Clicked "Apply" button and got this message:

"This share was created for administrative purposes only.
The share will reappear when the Server service is stopped and restarted
or the computer is rebooted. Are you sure you wish to stop sharing C$?"

I click "Yes" button.

It stays unshared until I reboot then the share is restored as C$.

TIA
