Right click the drive.
Select Properties.
Press the Sharing Tab.
Select Advanced Sharing.
Put a check on "share this folder".
Press Permissions now that it is clickable because you put a check on share this folder box.
Under "Group or Usernames" there should be a default option of Everyone. If it does not show this for you, press add and type Everyone.
Check all 3 boxes under Allow [full control, change read].
Problem solved.
