Error 'code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found

[Meteo]

Hey everyone,

I keep getting Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found error whenever I try to connect to any other computer (running windows 7 ultimate) on my network. I have another computer with windows 7 ultimate that does not have this problem. Firewalls are disabled on all computers.

Computers all ping fine. Can ping by name too.

If I try to connect via IP address, I get Error Code: Error0x80004005 Unspecified error

Please help.

Thanks

What firewall applications do you have installed on the problem computer?

Best thing in the world you could ever do is disable DHCP on the router and assign static ip addresses to each network adapter within Windows.

Machines will boot slightly quicker too.

It's the way to run a home network and simple enough to setup. It avoids errors like what you're getting although you should have the ability to run like that if you wish.

To make it even better, places entries for each machine on the network in the hosts file - for each machine. Google it if you don't know what it is. Nothing difficult.
It's basically a local dns cache that your machine follows.

If you still continue to have errors, uninstall all firewalls and antivirus. Do not only disable instead.

I had the exact same problem, disabled windows firewall and same problem.
Turned out to be Netbios over TCP/IP, I had it turned off on my laptop.
If it is disabled, it will not work. On a peer to peer network there is not a DNS server. I thought IPv6 would take care of it, I even changed the bindings for the LAN connection so IPv6 was higher than IPv4, would not work if NetBios over TCP/IP was disabled.

would not work if NetBios over TCP/IP was disabled.

Of course not. That's what the service is precisely for.

Way to encourage a new member to keep contributing to the forum. Here we have a new member, which he is check his profile, making his very first post which it is check his specs and instead of saying something like nice post (which it was) or perhaps good information (which it was) you decided that "Of course not. That's what the service is precisely for." was something that would help him or help the OP? Really.

Listen. I have no problems with you and things are cool. Don't tell me how to post. I help an amazing amount of people on here in one single day alone. I do best for everyone I can. I don't need criticizing unless I have done something wrong with tech.

Then, I still don't need criticizing. Instead, helpful information would be good so I can learn from it.

Other than that, you are criticizing one of this site's greatest helpers when you criticize me.

Sincerely, enjoy your holidays as well.

I am willing to try anything. Tell me how to accomplish the above and I will give it a try. I am running Win 7 (Ultimate ) on both machines but I can see their picture when I look into the network, but when I click on the icon, all I get is this error message.

You can Google it. If you have any specific questions or then have run into a problem implementing it, I'll be glad to help by answering anything for ya.

What third party antivirus and firewall software are you running? Regardless, uninstall it and see if things improve.

0x80070035 problems

I have a new laptop and an existing desktop.

I did the upgrade to win 7 (64) (laptop, Lenonvo w500 3.06) the other night and have a peculiar problem. when i browse the laptop with my desktop i can see the machine in the browser, but when i try to see any shares on the laptop i get a 0x80070035 error on the desktop, diagnostics (windows networking diags) say the laptop is not communicating on port 445...

Problem does not exist if i use the wireless NIC on the laptop, only if i use the Intel. browsing and sharing from the laptop to the desktop is ok.

I use the 82567LM on the laptop in autosense at 1G

The problem is unlikely to be firewall related as it occurs with or without the windows (only one) firewall enabled or disabled on both machines (unless the windows firewall is not totally disabling)

I upgraded the 82567 driver to the latest on intel's site, still same problem.

Both machines win 7 64 ultimate.

NETBIOS is enabled on all.

OK I am interested in trying absolutely everything. I have installed and uninstalled McAfee at least 4 times. I don't know how to set up separate IP addresses. I have even installed Microsoft Essentials softward to see if that works. Right now I have a Linksys dual band router. Both desktop and laptop are running Windows 7 Ultimate. With the Linksys I am running Network magic and am able to share files. But even though I have a printer (Lexmark X 6570) connected via wifi to my desktop and shared, my laptop will not see it and therefore cannot print to it. It all comes back to this same error code. Error code:0x80070035. So any suggestions that would be helpful. I need the detail proceedure rather than just simply the headlines please. jab

I fixed mine by disabling the ipv6 on the NIC driver... mine was strange cuz the wireless NIC had no problem, but the hardwire NIC had the problem.

FWIW both are intel NICs....

 

[rander2009]

details

go to the screen that shows the protocols bound to your NIC and uncheck the IPV6 box

Hey Guys,

Quick question - I know this thread is old, but it's really hurting me not to have this solved. I've read just about every tech support thread I can find.

I've enabled NetBIOS, disabled all my firewalls, used the same name and username for everything and still it won't work.

I tried solution #3 on this site:

0x80070035 Error - Solutions for Vista & Windows 7

It works, but I'm on a dynamic IP and the IP address keeps changing. So I can connect via IP but not computer name.

Any suggestions?

- Derek

corrected same problem

My problem was definitely a firewall problem. Vista laptop has Macafee and the network was set to Public instead of Home.

I changed the setting to Home and all was good. I did this by going into Firewall settings area, clicking on the IP range (dynamic for my router), clicking on EDIT and then setting it to a "Home" network. Everything opened up like a charm immediately afterward.

Disabling ipv6 worked for me. Would like to have a better solution.

Remote drive is located in Safe Mode, receives "no path" in full mode

My new laptop W7 Ultimate sees the shared remote drive in safe mode, gets "The network parh was not found" in full user modes. I have gone over all of the suggestions in the above posts and found no problem. We even painstakingly did selective startups with each of optional services diabled.

Any clues from anyone?
