How to Create MUlti-user Folder Security for a School Setting
I asked in a previous thread a related but it never lead to a useful solution, so I will try again.
I have . a computer(s) that I want to use in a multi-user situation where I will be adding and removing uses based on the school semester. One these computers I've installed a separate drive (X:\) for user data. What I would like to do is create an environment where each user sees X: as their own personal drive. Meaning that all other users file/folder are hidden and unavailable. As alternate solution, it would be acceptable to create a folder for each user and that any user cannot see the contents of other user folder. Either solution would work. From a maintenance point of view, when a user is added I'd like to update security for that user and only that user (meaning not having to updated folder security settings for all existing user. One last piece of information for cost purposes we are using the Home version of Window 10. Upgrading to Windows 10 Pro is not in the budget. Also, we do not have an IT department so hopefully the solution is something a teacher can implement.
I appreciate any help or assistance. Lastly, I'd like to avoid registry changes but if that is the only simple way then so be it.
