i'm the administrator and would like to make certain folders private from my
other users, however when i click on the sharing options the "make this
folder private" box is greyed out.

i tried to fix this issue through a number of online means, but because i
can't find my XP registration number I can't get a lot of help.

how can i remedy this situation??

how can i make these folders private?
