Icon Problem

by nassok Mar 21, 2004 12:54AM PST

Greetings!

I recently setup my first home network consisting of just two computers. Both are Win XP Pro SP1.

Everything is working fine with one exception. The shared folders on one computer do not carry the ?overlay? that designates that the folder is shared. I have no problem in the actual sharing, it?s just that the icons do not show that they are shared. The overlay was working fine until a couple of days ago, and I don?t think I did anything to remove it. Isn?t there someplace in Administrative Tools that will allow you to show, or not show this overlay?
