Question : How to unshare Printers & Faxes and Scheduled Tasks

When viewing the conditions of all networked workgroup computers using Windows Explorer, the "Printers And Faxes" and "Scheduled Tasks" folders are always shown for each PC.  I have not been able to find how to disable these shares at the source on each PC.   This would make for a much cleaner display on each users PC.

Any ideas?

Answer : How to unshare Printers & Faxes and Scheduled Tasks

Well you can try this trick that is for Win 2000 but may work fine on XP:

Removing Scheduled Tasks and Printers:
Start regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace
Deleting "{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}" removes the Scheduled Tasks entry
Deleting "{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}" removes the Printers entry

make sure u backup registry first
