Hi,
I've discovered that one of the computers in our house has a network place which contains the whole contents of the PC.
I would like to delete the network place so that no one can access the files but I don't want to delete the files from the computer which they are actually saved on.
Thanks

Hi,

If you delete Folders on My Network Places, you dont lose any data, the actual data will be there where you have saved. (Just delete the folder in My network places)
And stop Sharing that particular drive or folder.
