although created the two registry DWORD entries
AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks
and gave them values 0
(in the registry path
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\
Parameters]
)
The Automatic hidden shares persist.
Do anyone knows the reason?
Thanks
 
The share IPC is required by Windows for Admin purposes, so if that's what you are seeing, don't be worried. X-Setup (go to http://www.majorgeeks.com and you can find it under all-in-one) will take care of all shares no sweet, as well as letting you tweak Windows to your liking in a matter of seconds.
 
entering those reg entreies will prevent creation of the default shares
however it wont delete them
after adding those reg entries open a command prompt
and type net share sharename /del
do this for each share substituting sharename for the actual share name
for example
C:\>net share ADMIN$ /del

do this for all shares except IPC$ which you cant remove
then reboot and check if they are gone
