Windows 10: Some folders not showing on shared drives on network

It may be buried in here somewhere but thought I'd throw this out there just in case or to help folks that haven't found a solution here.
I was having trouble suddenly with several folders shared between my win 7 and 10 boxes. As far as I know they had worked before and suddenly I was getting you need permission errors from the 7 to 10 box, and at least one from the 10 to 7 box.
Poked around here, looked at my security settings, tried a few things but nothing worked. Then I remembered that some folders need a Everyone box with at least the basic 3 permissions set. I checked a working folder and it had Everyone with all boxes checked, checked a non working one and Everyone was not there. Pretty sure it HAD been there but it wasn't now, added it to all the bad folders and now both boxes are again happily sharing the drives and folders I picked again.
Like I said it's probably already in here somewhere but a good reminder for anyone having weird file sharing problems with only a few folders, yet all the others work.*092

How do I remove a child folder from a network share?

I'm attempting to share my iTunes Media folder but I only want the Music, Movies and TV Shows folders to appear in the network share without it displaying the other folders (e.g. Automatically Add to iTunes). I'm then going to map this as a network drive
on my other computers so that my media collection can be accessed (read-only) by anyone on the network. I have separately shared the Automatically Add to iTunes folder so that I can add to iTunes from my laptop. So my question is:

How do I share a parent directory but exclude some of its children from the share OR how do I share multiple folders in the the same share?

Thanks for any help.

 

Home Wifi networking to access other computers, laptops.

I go to Network. Click on it and Network shows all computers and their drives on the network. I click on one of them and it opens the folder for a drive. When I click on the individual folders on the drive they all come back with an error message: "Cannot
access.....etc. Does not have permission contact Administrator"



I have clicked all the network sharing dialog boxes on the remote computers as instructed, but still does not share.

What am I doing wrong?
