# How do I stop sharing a folder over Bridge?

Remove it from the list of shared folders on the device that shares it. In the Bridge app, open **Shared Folders** and click the bin button (**Stop sharing this folder**). On a Mac sharing with another Mac, click the red minus beside the folder under **Folders you share with …**.

Stopping sharing doesn't delete anything — the folder and its files stay exactly where they are on the device; it just no longer appears on the other side.
