• PC User's Tip
  

This week for your PC user's tip, I want to talk about how to make a folder private. This option is only available for folders included in your user profile including such folders as you My Documents. If you do not make these folders private, they are available to everyone who uses your computer.

Remember, when you make a folder private, all of its subfolders are private as well. Also, when you share a folder, you also share all of its subfolders unless you make them private. In addition, You cannot make your folders private if your drive is not formatted as NTFS.


• That being said, to make a folder private start by clicking on the START Button and then open My Computer.


• Next, double-click the drive where Windows is installed which is usually your C drive


• If the contents of the drive are hidden, under System Tasks, click Show the contents of this drive.


• Double-click the Documents and Settings folder.


• Double-click your user folder.


• Right-click any folder in your user profile, and then click Properties.


• On the Sharing tab, select the "Make this folder private so that only I have access to it" check box.



• Mac User's Tip
  
  For the Mac user's tip this week, I want to tell you how to instantly tell your folder permission level. When you click on a folder, you can instantly tell whether you have write access to it. Just take a look in the lower-left corner of the Finder window. If you see a pencil icon with a line through it, you don't have access to write to the directory.
