Hello,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Here is what I am doing to try and share a folder.  This has always
worked fine until a recent update.

I am just right clicking on a folder and clicking on: Sharing Options
A new window comes up and there is a Check Mark button that says: Share this 
folder
After I check the box I click on Create Share at the bottom of the windows.

Then right above the Create Share button I just pushed a statement
appears saying.....

'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert
name "Everyone" to a SID. Access denied.

Then when I cancel out of the screen there is no change to the folder,
it is still not shared.

Anything I need to go into and change?

Thanks
Mark Yeager
