Good Morning Avi:
I don't understand. How would other users access files
on your computer ? Or, to put it another way, how do you
transmit files to other users ?
If you want other users to use custom track files that you
have created, you would have to make those files available
to those users. Somehow you would have to get those files
to the users.
If you want the files to be secure, you can place access
control on a WEB directory and give them a login password.
You can use the .htaccess method to protect data on
a WEB site directory:
