Win 7 Folder share question - I honestly forget.

moulderhere · Dec 6, 2015

Okay, I simply forget what settings to use.
I want to have a main folder but then inside that main folder have 2 seperate folders that depending on the user account you see folder A or folder b. NEVER both.

My default settings I have it shows both folders but you get 'access denied'.
How do I stop it from showing the other folder?

You need to remove Traverse folder and List folder from the Advanced rights.

So when my users log into share they see

Folder 0 > Folder A
Folder 0 > Folder B

They are denied folder A
but access to B.

Traverse folder and list folder would hide folder a ?

Thanks, sorry its been a while since I had to hide folder shares.
This is also on a local windows 7 pro computer.

Yes it should hide the folders from view. Also, you can just share out the folders individually and just use those share rights to control who can get to what folder. Instead of sharing folder 0, share folder A and folder B, then have whoever needs access connect to those.

Honestly I have not verified the settings to hide them from a user, but those two are the only options that would should do it.
