1. Share folder with more than 20 users at the same time.

   Hello, I am doing a project having 24 Debian-clients trying to map a folder on a Windows 10 machine. I was already very happy to get it all running, but then I recognized four clients not being able to map the folder. Now I found out, that my WIndows 10 only allows to handle 20 open connections at a time.

   Now I wonder what I have to do to get my 24 (and more) clients mapping a shared folder. Will I have to install Windows server? And if so, which version would you suggest? Thanks a lot.

   :)

2. ?? How do I PW protect Folders in windows

   hmmm?
   Sharing files and folders overview You can share the files and folders stored on your computer, on a network, and on the Web. The method you choose depends on whom you want to share files with, and what computer they will use to access the files.

   When you share files or folders, they are not as protected as they are when you do not share them. People with access to your computer or your network might be able to read, copy, or change files that are in a shared folder. You should always be aware that the files and folders that you share are available to other people and be sure to monitor your shared files and folders on a regular basis.

   Important

   If your computer is not joined to a domain, you can use the Network Setup Wizard to automatically turn file and printer sharing on or off. To start the Network Setup Wizard, click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Setup Wizard.
   If you both use the same computer

   You can put the files you want to share in the Shared Documents folder. Files stored in the Shared Documents folder or its subfolders are always available to other users on your computer.

   Step-by-step procedure
   Note

   If you are connected to a network domain, the Shared Documents, Shared Pictures, and Shared Music folders are not available.
   If both computers are on the same network

   You can share a folder or drive on your computer with others on the network. You can also control whether the files in the shared folder can be modified by other users.

   If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

   Step-by-step procedure
   If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

   Step-by-step procedure
   Note

   If you are connected to a network domain, you will need to set the Access control for the folder or drive after sharing it. For more information, go to To set, view, change, or remove file and folder permissions.
   If you want to share your files online

   You can publish pictures and documents on the Web using the Web Publishing Wizard. The files will be stored in a private, online folder that you manage.

   Step-by-step procedure

   If you don't want others to access your files

   You can prevent other users from accessing your folders and the files they contain. When your computer is connected to a domain, this is called setting permissions for your file or folder. When your computer is connected to a workgroup, this is called making your folders private.

   If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

   Step-by-step procedure
   If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

   Step-by-step procedure

3. Cannot access shared network drive I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
   It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!

4. Share folder with more than 20 users at the same time.

   Network Sharing of a Folder Inside User Folder

   Hi, I have three computers that I share with inside my network (as shown when opening file explorer). It works fine but every time I try to share a folder that's inside the user folder the other people on the network don't just see that folder they have
   complete access to every file inside the user folder. Anyone have a suggestion that allows people to only see that particular folder inside the user folder?

   For instance C:\Users\Rich\Pictures is the folder I want to share on the network but when I share the others see the whole C:\Users not just the pictures folder.

   Thanks!
