How do I disable document sharing in a network?

Asked By Clarisse Pincher 10 points N/A Posted on - 02/28/2012

Hi

I would like to disable document sharing on the network. How do I change the settings and how do I configure that?

Is there a way wherein I can set all PCs in the network to disable document sharing, and do it without having to go to all the PCs to set them up like that?

 

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

How do I disable document sharing in a network?

You can disable document sharing on the network.Yes you can disable it from your server PC. You do not need to set up on all computers. But you should be admin on the computer. But there is a problem that all windows does not support this method. However you can try this on your computer. Procedure:

Go to my computer from my computer. Go to the tools menu and click on Folder options.

Then on View

Then find out Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended)  from advanced setting.

Uncheck Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended)  and Finally click ok. Document sharing on the network has disabled.You can enable it again simply putting tick mark on Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended).

Have a good luck.
