Hi All

I have a pc running xp pro sp2 and there are no options for me to be able to
share a folder. Anyone have any ideas why

Thanks

Glenn
 
Whats the problem using "Simple File Sharing"?
What happened one you right-click on a folder? Are you unable to see
"Sharing and Security" in right click context menu. If yes, that means you
need install your LAN / Eithernet Card Drivers.

If there is a "Sharing and Security" option in right-click then click the
option. If this is the first time you are going to share something then
computer may ask you to Turn On file and Print sharing.

If that doesn't solve your problem then please explain what happend when you
right click on a folder.

Hope this help, let us know!

What specific folder is it? Protected system folders (C:\Program
Files, C:\Windows, C:\Documents and Settings, etc) cannot be shared, by
design.
