I've lost the command to share a folder in the context menu when I
right-click on a folder. Is there a registry setting to restore the
command? I had recently lost the "New" command also but was able to restore
it through the registry. My existing shares are still accessible, but I'm
not able to modify the settings or unshare the folder.

I'm not certain what's causing the disappearing commands. I've thoroughly
checked the system, and it appears to be clean.

I identified two registry entries on a Windows 98 machine and copied them.
It restored the sharing command and the sharing dialog box. Does anyone
know what would cause the registry entries to be removed?
