Hide the other participants of a shared folder.

When I am sharing out a folder , I do not want the anyone else to know who I have shared it with  - its find seeing the number of shares but not who - atm it shews a list of people and names  -  is it possible to hide this information ?

 

many thanks

    With a shared folder, no. Shared folders are meant for collaboration, so any member can see all other members. If you send a shared link, the recipients can't see any information about whom you've shared it with.
