    Multiple access to same pdf file from homegroup


    Hope this post is not duplicate
    Hi

    how to setup a homegroup with 10 users accessing a pdf file simultaneously/concurrently at the same time in the my documents folder.They will only be allowed read permission, no way they can move/copy or edit the file.i do not think they wil be able to manipulate the same pdf at the same time so
    I was thinking of creating 10 folders with a copy of the file in its own folder and enforcing the home view permission on the folder. Or am I wrong?
    Any suggestion guys?

    thanks

    :)

    How do I share a printer in Windows 10

    Here's the deal, Microsoft has killed HOMEGROUP in the latest update to W10 (It's 4/17/2018 and the most recent update removed it on this PC, but not a bunch of other W10Pro PC's we're running so our HOMEGROUP is just broken, and there is no way to access
    the HOMEGROUP SETTINGS in Control Panel on this PC anymore). We share printers, files, etc. using homegroup. Now we're going to have to reconfigure all our sharing from Homegroup Members to "Access for Specific Users" and we're going to have to create symmetrical
    user accounts on all the devices we want to share among. This takes us back to a time before the existence of the HOMEGROUP feature. Multiple access to same pdf file from homegroup :(

    Here is a PDF file from Microsoft that explains how to set up your printer sharing now that HOMEGROUP has been killed:

    Unable to access print icon in File explorer in windows 10

    In Windows 10, File explorer, under the share tab, the print icon, burn to disk,and email icon are all greyed out for pdf files. From looking at other posts, I have checked that the printer spool is running and have used both edge and chrome as my default
    pdf viewer. I can access print options when I open a pdf in chrome and it will print fine, but I am actually trying to use the print to pdf function in file explorer to merge multiple pdf files. No matter what type of file I highlight, the print icon is greyed
    out. Thanks
