Hi All,

So I re-setup a Windows 7 Home Group Network in my condo, among my main "Power PC", and "HTPC". Each has Win7 Ultimate.

I freely move media between the two, but more usually with the HTPC referencing "Shared" folders on the Power PC. I am the only user "Cam" on either machine.

About a week ago, I added an old hard drive to the Power PC tower, and then tried "Sharing" that additional drive "Big Media" on my Home Group Network, for the HTPC to access.

Well, now all of the Folders with the little "Lock" symbol within their icons, can no longer be viewed on the Home Group Network from my HTPC.

I've gone into the folder, and unclicked the radio button, that indicates it's "read" only.

Appreciate any help in rectifying this sharing problem.
