Sick of Windows 7 denying me access!
I like 7, I really do and I have been doing everything in my power to try to give it a chance. That having been said...
First Issue
There are waaaay too many security restrictions. I'm running 5 computers over a lan all linked up with Input Director and sharing all of the hard drives. Do I really have to manually share EVERY folder?
Sharing the drives themselves does no good, access denied... Opening a rar file on one computer that is hosted by another... access denied... Along with a myriad of other 'ACCESS DENIED' issues. Is there any way to just open all the computers so I don't have to deal with the admin (owner?) privileges?
I mean, I am the owner, why do I have to 'run as ADMIN' on every program? I just want to disable any and all of these stupid access denied issues.
I did search on Google to find some fixes, but they were still limited to one specific issue or another... nothing that would just fix it system wide.
I had the whole system set up perfect with XP pro, it was like using one massive computer... now there is definitely a wall between the nodes and its driving me batty.
Please tell me there is a way to get rid of the security besides manually setting EVERY folder to share, EVERY external device to share, EVERY TIME I need to use it.
Second Issue
As I mentioned before I use Input Director so I can use just one keyboard and mouse to control the whole system. However, with ID turned on, the sensitivity on my Wacom doesn't work. It acts like a regular mouse. When I get the Wacom working (through the pen tablet settings in Windows 7) It treats both my mouse and the Wacom like they are pen tablets, thus overriding ID.
How do I get Windows 7 to recognize the mouse and Wacom as two totally different input devices?
Thanks in advance and I apologize if my first question sounds more like a rant. I installed 7 over a week ago and I just cant get the sharing thing ironed out. Frustrating as hell.
Thanks again.
