usershare allow guests
This parameter controls whether user defined shares are allowed to be accessed by non-authenticated users or not. It is the equivalent of allowing people who can create a share the option of setting guest ok = yes in a share definition. Due to its security sensitive nature, the default is set to off.
Supported on: At least Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 family
