Giving away ownership of a folder or disk on
your computer
You can give away ownership of a shared folder or disk on your
computer to a registered user or group.

However, the new owner can change the access privileges
that other people have to the item. If you give away ownership of
a folder or disk, make sure to remove any folders or documents
that you don’t want others to see or change.
1. Select a shared folder or disk.
2. Choose Sharing from the File menu.
