Windows XP Tablet PC - not all Professional features

#1 Post by weepy » Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:54 am

...like access privileges management. The User accounts control panel looks exactly like in XP Home. I have NTFS and I see no way to user-folder/file assignment. When I want to share my files using windows network, i have to enable Guest account with no way to set its password. I would like to share folders under password, is there a way? The Sharing and Security tabs are cut down to share name, no access and owner control :(..

Shouldn't be. XP Tablet Edition is a superset of XP Pro. All of the XP Pro features are supposed to be there.

There is a setting "Use simple file sharing". It's on the Explorer menu. Go to Tools > Folder Options > View > and uncheck "Use simple file sharing (recommended). Then the security tab should appear on files and folders to allow you access to the permissions settings.

Thank you, worked for me, i can set permissions as I'm used to :). I hope I will somehow find out how to enable proper user management (with groups), but that is not such pain in you know where...

delete me, lock me :D
