Windows 10: Protecting Onedrive file share with both restrictive email access and password

Hello,Currently trying to find a way to send a link only to specific emails with onedrive that will also allow me to password protect the link like I'm able to do when sending files via "share link with anyone" as opposed to "people you choose". Is there any way to do this? If not, is there any simpler workaround than simply sharing an archived folder with winrar/winzip password protection?

:)

 

Password Protect Restricted Sites? IE11

I have Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10. I know how to add a website to the restricted list, but can I password protect the restricted list so that someone cannot remove a website from the restricted list without the password?

Thank you.

 

Onedrive revoke all sharing

Hi starbassfishing,

Thanks for your response. I apologize that my initial response doesn't seem to address your main concern earlier. There may be a misunderstanding in our end, but I appreciate you for providing additional information on the issue. Allow me to help you again, and let's work as a team together.

To revoke all sharing in OneDrive, you can follow these steps:

1. Sign in to your OneDrive account.
   
2. Select the Shared option from the left pane.
   
3. Select the Shared by me option.
   
4. Select the Manage access option next to the file or folder that you want to stop sharing.
   
5. Select the Stop sharing option to revoke all sharing.
   

This will revoke all sharing for the selected files and folders. If you have subfolders, you will need to repeat these steps for each subfolder.

If you want to get a definitive list of what you have shared, you can follow these steps:

1. Sign in to your OneDrive account.
   
2. Select the Shared option from the left pane.
   
3. Select the Shared by me option.
   
4. You will see a list of files and folders that you have shared. You can select any file or folder to see who it has been shared with and what permissions they have.
   

In regard to your password that was gotten by the hackers, I would like to inform you that Microsoft will never send any form of emails that's asking you to reset your password without your request. If you received one, I'm afraid that is a phishing attack that's trying to trick people from getting their account information. It is very important to be cautious with handling suspicious emails to avoid this issue from happening again moving forward. Again, Microsoft will never send emails to collecting customer's confidential information like your email and account password. Microsoft values customer's security and privacy as it is our top priority.

Regarding your concern about sharing files and folders in OneDrive, Microsoft provides a comprehensive guide on how to share files and folders in OneDrive. You can share files and folders with specific people or create a sharing link that can be sent to anyone. You can also set permissions for the shared files and folders, such as allowing others to edit or view only.



If you’re concerned about sharing your email address when sharing files and folders, you can create a new email address and use it to sign up for a new Microsoft account. You can then use this new email address to share files and folders in OneDrive.



As for your concerns about Outlook, I understand that you’re not happy with the service. We are more than happy to hear your feedback and share your suggestions to our developers via the Feedback Hub app. Let your voice be heard and make a difference.



Hope this information helps. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.



Sincerely,

Password protected share able to access without authentication

We have configured samba with password protected share folders. The problem what we are facing is, due to windows caching authentication is not asking when we change the password .For example Share has been configured with user name and password, when
we trying to access the share, authentication prompt is getting and able to access with configured user name and password. Once password has been modified, expected while trying to access the share, should ask authentication prompt and access
only with modified password. But share was able to access without authentication prompt.

• On accessing samba share from ubuntu i don’t face any problems. Once we unmount the share after using it, it is prompting for username and password for the second time.
• But in windows when I access samba share for the first time, second time it is not prompting for the username and password simply the samba shared is getting accessible.
• I just want windows machine to ask password every time when the user closes the share, instead of doing “net use * /delete” every time, and we can’t request
  user to do this every time.
• I tried below steps to disable windows cache , but still I am facing observing same behavior.

Click Start >Run > gpedit.msc

Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options

Set "Interactive Logon: Number of Previous Logins To Cache"
value to ‘0’



Kindly let us know any way to fix this issue?
