4. Enter a group name, for example Everyone or Domain Users. Then click Check Names, once selected click Ok.

5. Make sure you highlight the group you have added and make sure it has Full Control – Allow box ticked. Once done click Apply and then click Ok.

6. Go to the Sharing tab and click Share… select the group you are sharing it out to and make sure the read/write option is ticked before you click Share.
