    How to disable administrative shares in Windows 7?

    Hello everyone!

    I have one partition ( C drive), it is shared with $ mark. To disable this default admin share, I had right click on partition and select "stop sharing". But after a restart all admin shares are up & kicking again .

    Please help me! Thanks so much.
