I edit the smb.conf file directly.

In Windows, you generally end up having to type various incantations into Powershell to do anything more than the most basic stuff, and editing the smb.conf is a lot easier than that.

Also, if you know what you are doing, editing the smb.conf is a lot quicker than clicking around a gui interface.
