Network Sharing asks for Password
Hello,
I have 3 computers (1 XP, and 2 Windows 7). Win 7 computers can always access network shares on Win XP without a password. However, I can't seem to get this working Win 7 to Win 7. I have searched the internet for an answer, but so far haven't been able to solve it.
Here's the setup:
1. "Documents" folder shared on Win 7 computer, configured so that "Everyone" has Read/Write access. Windows Explorer confirms this by stating "Shared with: Everyone, User"
2. Password Protected Sharing has been disabled in the Network Control Panel.
Now, I go to the other two computers and attempt to navigate to the share and am prompted for network authentication. How do I disable this completely?
Thanks!
Update: I have followed the guide provided by this forum exactly and still no luck.
