Windows XP Sharing

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Hello All -

I am unable to "share" folders and files from one of my user accounts on
XP. It is an administrator account, but is unable to access any folder
or drive properties - clicking on properties does nothing.

If I create a new account, the file properties are accessible and I can
share across the network.

I know I can copy all the info from the corrupt user to the new user,
but that seems somewhat unreliable.

Is there any way of fixing the corrupt account?

Thanks.

Jud
