Hey. In my libraries (music, videos etc) it always has c: as a shared media folder, so it show all of c drives files in those libraries. When i go to remove it from the media manager, it removes, but the comes up with an error saying it has been removed but cannot stop sharing. Then after I restart it, it is back. Also it shows up in windows media player, and takes ages to load the library. Any help?

Thanks

Hmm.. I'm not exaclty sure why it's appearing there but why delete it? Have you tried system restore to get back to a time before you deleted it..

Its not that. It keeps coming back and I have to remove it because all my libraries a swarmed with C: drive (system drive) files.
