User Accounts

My boss recently asked for user accounts to be setup on the company computer for all employees. The user accounts have been setup - all as Computer Administrators. It looks like some files (such as music) on my boss' user account are not being shared on the other accounts. When I established a password on my boss' main account there was a window asking if I wanted to make those files private. I believe I selected the option to yes, make those files private. Is this causing the problems with the other user accounts? If so, is there anyway I can alter that option? Thanks in advance for any help - I really appreciate it! :)
 
I guess so. But it's easy to share a folder. Try doing the following:

Log in your boss' account, select the folder you want to share. Then right-click on it, select 'Properties' and on the window that appears, select the tab 'Sharing'. See if the option 'Make this folder private' is selected, and if yes diselect it.

You can also drag and drop the folders you want to share into 'My Shared Folders' folder. I guess it works as well.

Good luck!

P.S.: My Windows is in Portuguese language, so I don't know if those are the right names of the options.
