Can't share files and printers on the network. Error message: Server service is not started.

I CAN'T DO FILE/PRINTER SHARING.

I GET a MESSAGE SHOW "SERVER SERVICE NOT STARTED" I ALSO TRIED WINDOWS HELP AND IT SAYS HELP AND SUPPORT NOT START. HOW CAN I GET THESE TO START AUTOMATIC

What version of Windows, including the service pack is installed? (Do right click my computer and select Properties, if you do not know)

The method 1 and method 2 in this article--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885859

If you're in the Services applet according to method 1, also make sure that the Startup Type is set to automatic (to resolve, double-click the entry in the Services; Startup type is under the general tab).

You can also start Help and Support by using the Services applet (its Startup Type can be manual or automatic).

If you receive error messages when you try to follow the steps above, report completely, without paraphrasing.

The fact that two fairly common services do not work can mean that something more sinister is happening.  What antivirus application do you use?  What's his current subscription?  Its subscription has already been authorized expiration?

You can download, install, update and run MalwareBytes AntiMalware (it of free and can be removed later if you wish).

I can see the original files, but not the file that I just added. When I right click on the properties of a file or folder, the sharing tab does not exist even if I tried to share it. What Miss me?

  • share files and printers between 3 PC

    I have 3 fully equipped computers to windows vista.
    two computers can connect to eachother and share files, while the third cannot.
    I tried to renew the ip address and attempts to connect without a fire blumenthals, nothing works
    Help, please!

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    (C) in Vista, turn on password protected sharing. Create accounts of users and corresponding passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Vista - Start ORB > Search > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • Error 2114 after cleaning registry with RegistryMechanic. The Server service is not started when I try to share a file on my local network and register to an older date seems not possible.

    I am using Windows XP Pro with sp3. Before interfering with the registry, everything was fine. Now, I tried inserting AutoShareWks and AutoShareServer DWORD in the LanmanServer\Parameter, but it does not work. When viewing in "Administrative Tools\.\.\Shares", "error 2114" is displayed. What's happening and where the change happened? How can I get my pictures on my mediaplayer again?

    taaiewillem,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  Unfortunately, a lot of registry cleaners may end up doing more harm than good.  I would check with the registry program, to see if it created any type of original backup before you start.  Now when you say that you "reset the registry to an older date" did you do this through the system restore?  If not then I suggest to run a system restore to a date prior to the registry "cleaning".  If that does not resolve the issue, then you do a repair installation.

  • C310a - I can't stop all the HP error message pop up when I start my computer

    Lately and since the fitting (authentic replacement) cartridges, the error messages - jam paper, cartridge problem paper loading, insist on popping up over and over again, even if I click on the relevant Red Cross to close.

    I tried the * beep * and on this forum for a solution.  I found the one nearest asked that the printer had to be checked for stray pieces of paper or other debris which would cause these messages to appear.  Apparently, they are all related to this type of error.

    I checked the printer including the duplex unit, but found no debris, lint or other debris.  I have downloaded and run the Diagnostic tool but still once, found nothing untoward.

    I'm happy the printer works fine, (it prints, copies and scans perfectly fine).

    I have to reset anything?  If so, how?  Or can someone tell me what I may need to do to solve the problem?

    Thank you very much

    Alright. I think it's safe to say that it is a software issue and not a hardware problem. So reinstall software has to deal with the problem.

    Click Start Menu > all programs > HP > HP Photosmart C310 Seris > uninstall to uninstall the software. Download the latest software and drivers for your printer using the link below, then run it to install the software again. This should solve the problem.
