I've got XP Home and can't disable the Simplified
Security 'feature'. The instructions set in KB 307874
don't work as the 'Use simple file sharing checkbox
doesn't exist. Does anyone know where in the registry
this setting is stored and what the setting should be?

Please let me know when you post as I don't come in here
very often. Thanks.
 
Q: Does anyone know where in the registry this setting is stored and
what the setting should be?
A: Visit your favorite local PC software supplier - locate and
purchase WinXP Pro Upgrade, Upgrade XP Home to XP Pro, Start->Control
Panel->Folder Options->View Tab->Scroll to Bottom and Uncheck "Use
simple file sharing (Recommended)" box.
