Figure 19-3. Windows wants to make absolutely sure you—and those you share your files with—know
what you’ve done. So click “e-mail” to start an outgoing message in your email program with the
link to your shared goods, or click “copy” to park that link on your Clipboard for future sharing.
Wouldn’t want the wrong people sniffing around the wrong personal files, now.
Advanced Folder Sharing—and Disk Sharing
The “share any folder” wizard described in the previous pages might seem
fairly complex, but look on the bright side: It replaces an older method that
was even more complicated.
And guess what? That method is still available. Here’s a quick review of
this alternate route (which is, by the way, the only way to share entire
disks):
1. Right-click the folder or disk you want to share. If it’s a folder,
choose Properties from the shortcut menu, and then click the
Sharing tab. If it’s a disk, choose “Share with” → “Advanced
sharing.”
