Listing All of your Shares

Posted Jul 27, 2005 | by David Risley  

If you every have wanted to view all of your shares for whatever reason, but have had a hard time finding them, Windows 2000 and XP include a nice feature to view all shares. To do this, go to Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Computer Management. Then, click on “Shared Folders,” and finally click on “Shares.” Here you will see all of your computer’s active shares, including the administrative ones. However, you CANNOT delete the administrative shares (they are easy to spot because they always have a dollar sign trailing their names). For all non-administrative shares, you can use this console to manage, create, edit, and delete existing shares.
