I didn't change anything.


If you enable File Sharing, then all of the folders in the User's profile are accessible to another system. That is a security no-no. Plus, if I have something on my Desktop that I don't want anyone to access, they can access it with File Sharing enabled. That's a privacy no-no.


I want to share a single folder between two systems. I do not want another system to access anything in the User's profile other than that single folder. That's it.


Or you are telling me in a roundabout way this is the way Microsoft designed this crap ? Gee, that wouldn't surprise me not one bit.


It's hard to know without any official documentation that explains things at a level of detail that covers everything sufficiently. I have no idea of how it is intended to work nor which protocols are used because Microsoft doesn't say anywhere in a language that makes any kind of sense.


Some online guides say that SMB1 must be enabled for shares between W7 and W10 systems.
