Vista Ultimate 64-bit. Two users (xyzadmin & xyz). User
xyzadmin wants to make all his directories/folders/files
available to user xyz. Following the steps outline in Help,
and in a well respected manual, at the end the message is
received "Your Folder Could Not Be Shared".

The one directory, under which there are hundreds of
sub-directories/folders and files, is very large. Could
that be the problem?

Any ideas on how to accomplish the goal of letting user xyz
be co-owner with user xyzadmin? I'd prefer to avoid moving
everything to the public folders section, since that might
complicate the later addition of hypothetical user abc.

Thanks.

Have a read of the above link re Vista File and Printer Sharing.

How to give Permissions/ Sharing are there, too.
