my home network w.7 desktop and wifi xp laptop were on my home network each could access each others folders via wifi. [no user log in on auto access]
all went wrong this morning on the w7 desktop the network see's the xp lappy but refuses access see administrator. been trying all day and got nowhere.
can anyone give me easy steps to follow please.
Thanks for replies but still no joy, even tried running windows explorer as administrator but all i get back from the xp laptop is
"you do not have permission to access.....contact your network administrator to requst access"
I am the sole user on both computers, with auto access on bootup.
everything was fine till yesterday havnt a clue whats changed.
everthing in the laptop shows shared even run the shared folder wizard a few times and gone into properties in "my computer" and have the c drive shared.
at a lost, would be grateful for any further help please.
yes
got 32bit w7 ultimate on the desktop and xp media centre on the laptop.
all the shares are in place just cannot get passed
"you do not have permission to access.....contact your network administrator to requst access"
make sure your security permissions are also configured to allow access to your folders they are different than ur share permissions it will be under a tab called security right beside sharing
