The error is self-explanatory actually.

The folder itself does not exist anymore and thus cannot be shared. Either recreate the folder (check for spelling in case you already did) or delete the share. Keep in mind that the folder is case sensitive.

You may need to close and reopen the window for it to refresh the status of the folder though.

If you can't get it to work, start from the bottom. Remove the share, remove the folder, create the folder, share directly from the folder.

  • I Already remove the shared folder then make the new one. Document and inside the Documents folder are websites folder. especially the payroll but everytime i access the payroll though internet it can't be reached. – John Carl Mogol Mar 12 '20 at 09:47
  • Your error is talking about Documents\SBProcurements though, its missing that 2nd folder. – LPChip Mar 12 '20 at 09:56
  • Also, keep in mind, Event log items, will continue to show, even after the problem is resolved. So look if an error comes back to know if there is a problem or not. – LPChip Mar 12 '20 at 09:56
  • Thanks. "Event log items, will continue to show, even after the problem is resolved." Interesting that Event 2511 resurrects share names long gone from the system. – Laurie Stearn Nov 15 '20 at 08:35
