This was the only information that I found when searching
in the Help Files. I tried this. Open Control Panel,
Folder Option, View. The last line item is Use Simple
File Sharing (Recommended).

This originally was not checked - then somewhere along
the line I did put a check in this box. I have taken the
check mark out and it doesn't change the User Accounts
options.

Is there something else that I need to do?
