You want to create a shared folder named CONFIDENTIAL on your Windows XP Professional system for your personal data. You do not want users who may be browsing the network to see this shared folder. How do you name a shared folder to ensure that it is not visible to other users through My Network Places?
Explanation
Answer - D - If you do not want the shared folder to be visible to other users through My Network places, you should name the folder as CONFIDENTIAL $.
Key Takeaway: A hidden share is identified by a dollar sign ($) at the end of the share name. Hidden shares are not listed when you look through the shares on a computer or use the net view command. By default, Windows can enable the hidden administrative shares that include Root partitions or volumes, the system root folder, the FAX$ share, the IPC$ share, and the PRINT$ share.
