Hi, advice wanted please.
I have not previously defined multiple users on my home PC (XP Home 5.1,
SP1).
Now I want to define 2 users, and each is to have some private folders that
are not visible to the other account. I read somewhere in the Windows
documentation that the file system has to be NTFS to support this.
Therefore I converted my logical discs from FAT32 to NTFS, and on the
properties sheet for the folders that I want to hide, I can see the
following option, under the "Sharing" tab:
"To make this folder and its subfolders private so that only you have
access, select the following check box:"
The problem is, the check box is greyed-out. What else do I have to do?
Thanks
Ross
