Question Shared folder is no longer shared after rebooting!?


I have two partitions: one for Ubuntu 64-bit and another one with the format NTFS only for keeping documents. I have shared one folder of this NTFS partition, but every time I reboot the PC (or shutdown and start again for that matter) the folder is no longer shared.

Why?
How can I prevent this folder to be un-shared when I reboot the computer?

Thanks a lot!

Be more specific. What OS are you booted into? How are you sharing it in the first place? What's the message when you try to access it after a reboot?

I'm booted in the only OS I have which is Ubuntu 64-bit.
I'm sharing by right-clicking the folder > sharing options > share this folder.
There is no message when I try to access it after reboot. I know it is no longer shared, because the icon for a shared folder is no longer there and the settings that appear when I click "sharing options" are the same as the ones that were there before I shared the folder.

This problem does not happen anymore now that I use ext4 instead of NTFS.
