* Greetings,
HomeGroups & sharing C:\
I have a homegroup set up for my two laptops,
using file/folder sharing. It shares User Folders fine.
But I can't get to files here: C:\
How can I tell win7 to 'share the entire C-drive'?
Thanks...vmars

Windows 7 doesn't want to allow sharing the whole drive for security reasons. You might check out THIS thread for some alternatives I encourage you to consider first.

If you still insist on sharing C:\ then THIS is how Microsoft says it is done.
