    Shared folder user limit

    I'm trying to increase the user limit of a shared folder on a W/Vista and it seems the maximum I can use is five (5), but I need more.

    Any ideas?

    Re: Shared folder user limit

    The maximum number of users allowed is limited by software licensing limits. Software licensing limits preempt any limits that can be set in Shared Folders.
    So, it seems I have a limit here that I cannot change?

    W/Vista Home Basic limit is 5 users. True?

    Anyone knows limit values for other W/Vista versions?

    Windows Vista Home Basic allows 5
