Let Win XP manage sharing functions fully functional

The so-called management sharing refers to the shared folder provided by Windows for daily management needs. This folder is automatically created by the system and is hidden by default. Administrators can access the corresponding administrative shared folder by adding "$" to the share name anywhere in the network. For example, "Admin$" is the "SystemRoot" folder, which is "C:Winnt" by default. Also, all partitions of the local hard disk will automatically become such a shared folder, which can be accessed with "C$, D$" and the like. Of course, by default, this access requires the privileges of the Administrators group.
