"Sharing and Security" is missing from my XP Laptop

"Sharing and Security" is missing from my XP Laptop I have this work laptop with XP SP3. I am missing the right click option "sharing and security" which allows me to share folders and such. The "Sharing" tab is also missing from a right click > properties. At least I think there used to be one.

"If even after checking the option ""Use simple file sharing"", the menu does not show ""sharing and security"", then check if the following services (control panel->Administrative tools->services) are running or not:
* Server
* workstation

Both the services are required for file sharing to work.

I would also suggest to check you PC for conficker worm infection. This worm infects the ""server"" service and can cause issues. Check Anti-virus software logs. Anti-virus might kill the ""server"" service to clean the conficker infection.

Also check if the following dependent services:
* Computer Browser
* NetLogon"

"In an explorer window:

Navigate to Tools -> Folder Options
Open the ""View"" tab
Scroll to the bottom of the ""Advanced Settings"" and uncheck ""Use simple file sharing""
Apply & OK"
