Default PT creates "Shared Folders" on Vista?

I have a an issue here where PT8HD is creating shared folders for some reason...

Quoting another user (GNA)...
Quote:
Every recording session is saved in a folder that Vista says is shared. I cannot delete these folders without hanging up my machine for 5 to 10 minutes at it tries to delete them. I can't remove sharing of these folders without doing the same.

How can Vista take 5 to 10 minutes or more to remove sharing from these folders when I'm not on a network and there is only one user ID registered in Windows for this PC?

Why is Pro Tools saving folders this way? How do I turn this off?
Does anyone have any ideas here?

Are the files in question on a separate drive? I have Vista and haven't seen this.

It is saving them on to the System drive. I havent tried saving the sessions to a secondary HD. I will give it a shot though.

It also does the same thing on my LE system....

Ill do a bit of tweaking and let you guys know how I get on.

Aha! It only does it when i save it to the System drive. It doesnt do it if i save to my secondary Data drive. I usually run my sessions off a secondary drive anyway so its all good.

Easy.
