Sharing iTunes library on one windows computer with multiple accounts

If you want a truly global accessible iTunes music folder to share on a Win 7 multi user account setup then I have found this to be the best way. You may find other methods online, including Apples own method of moving just the media folder but to me its not the best way. The way I configured mine allows all users to access the same iTunes library completely. No need for moving just part of the files, consolidating or duplicating files.

1.Browser to C:/ users /your_username/
2.Right click on My Music folder and choose properties
3.Select the location tab and choose MOVE
4.Set the new location by browsing to C:/ users / public / public music
5.When asked if you would like to move files choose Yes
6.When asked if you would like to make this the default location choose Yes
7. Log in to each user account and do the same thing as above

Now when you install or start iTunes on any of the accounts modified as above, iTunes will automatically use the Shared Folder for music, apps, etc.. No need to have duplicate files.
