How to set up shared drive for multiple users
Hi all,
Recently got myself a new computer (laptop), and just wondering what's the best way to set this up?
I have a (256Gb) SSD which is for Windows/programs, and 1TB HDD for docs, pics, music and game installs.
My computer is shared between my wife and I, and we both have a user account. SSD is C drive and HDD is D. I've redirected libraries/folders for both user accounts so that they are pointing to D:\User Data\Music etc, but how do I set this up so that everything on D is accessible to both of us (without requiring admin permissions)?
Everything is already in place, but any time either of us tries to move, create or edit a file, it requires admin rights. I've messed around with sharing and permissions, but don't seem to have it sorted... D: properties say the drive is "shared" and everyone has "Full Control" in security (not ideal I know, but just trying to get this working), but doesn't seem to help.
Any suggestions?
PS. No other PCs on our network at present, so no Homegroup, although I turned this on while transferring from the old laptop.
