Windows Networking: Prompt For Unique Credentials Muliple, On Multiple Network Shares, Without Mapping

I have several folders shared on a Windows 10 PC. Each has a different user name and password.

I would like to have the clients prompted for credentials when they click onattempt to open the share in the network explorer.

I found that disabling the guest account on the host will prompt for a username and password when you try to access the shared computer, but once any valid credentials are entered only the share folder associated with those credentials is accessible.

Afterward, none of the other shares prompt for a passwordcredentials. Instead they simply say "You do not have permissions... "

I know I can map each of the folders with unique credentialscredential. However, but iI would like to avoid mapping the drives as peopleusers accessing these shares will only do so briefly and then never access them again.

Is there any way to do this?
