Remove shared folder

Ciba · 31 Oct 2006 at 19:19

Ive got a bit of a problem with my shared folders, a while ago I enabled shared folders to include My Music to help transfer files over to a new hard drive. Now I don't need this feature anymore as its become a bit of an annoyance.

I have disabled the ability to transfer the folder over a network via the sharing tab for the My Music folder but still it sits inside Shared Documents inside My Computer. How to I go about moving the folder back into My Documents and renaming the folder "My Music" from "Shared Music"

Cheers guys.

For some reason though I don't have My Music inside My Documents.

i can't quite get my head around where you have things and where you don't - but isn't it just a simple case of copy/paste/rename accordingly?

When I try and drag and drop the "Shared Music" folder from "Shared Documents" into My Documents which is where it originally came from I get the message - My Music is a Windows system folder and is required for Windows to run properly. It cannot be moved or renamed.

Currently My Music is at this location - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music

and I want to move it to what would be and what it originally was - C:\Documents and Settings\Name\My Documents\My Music
