# Sharing albums

If you use users accounts in your computer, you have the possibility to decide whether your album or some of your albums can be accessible to the other users. If an album is shared, the other users can play, modify, vary and move puzzles included in this album. They also can rename and delete this album. If an album is not shared, then it is your private album, which cannot be seen by the other users in the Store Room. They do not know about its existence and they cannot work with it at all.

A shared album if minimized is represented with a different icon then a private album.

The area of the Store Room is divided into the area of private albums and the area of shared albums. There cannot be two albums of the same name in one area but there can be an album of the same name in the shared and private area.

The desktop of the Store Room is also an album. This album is always shared. It is not possible to delete or rename it. By pressing the right mouse button anywhere on the desktop, you can display the context menu for this album.

Privacy of the albums, which are not shared, depends on the operating system of your computer. Operating systems Windows 95, 98, Me contain a basic protection, which can be broken through by a computer more competent individual. In operating systems Windows 2000, XP and higher, the private area of individual users is protected far more completely.
