$ sign in XP Share Name. Want to just have a share name

Mustang Charlie · Sep 18, 2013

When $ sign is present, folder isn't shared on network. How do I get rid of it so it doesn't keep coming back when I set the share name?

You are not fully correct a $ sign means it is hidden still accessible just not visible. If it is a system share say c$ not sure if you can remove it just add another share name like cdrive and use this one for yourself.

The $ means it's an administrative share and these are hiiden yet accessable as stated above.
