I have the Mac version of RootsMagic and have created a shared drive. When I create it, the program only creates a launch file for mac OS and not Windows. I want to share it with someone who only had Windows. How can I get the program to create a launch for Windows also?

Shared drives only work on the OS that they were created on. A workaround would be for the other person get a copy of RM, use Essentials (free) and you provide a copy of your database as a backup with media, and they restore your database on their machine.
unfortunately – you need to have two versions one for Mac and one for windows. You might be able to put both versions (one in each folder) – not sure if anyone has done that.
I understand why MAC vs PC are not universal. There are workarounds – such as an RMHTML site. (other wise you need other software)
