when u click on the sharing and security tab of my docs, the "keep this folder private" box is checked and cannot be unchecked. I dont remember checking it and would like to uncheck it. Any ideas??
 
Hi Garrin,

Perhaps the folder is owned by a different user account. Have you attempted
to take ownership of the folder? If you are using Windows XP
Professional, you can could also turn off Simple File Sharing and then set
the security options. Simple File Sharing cannot be turned off easily in
Windows XP Home Edition.
