Centre network and sharing that network discovery, file sharing, and media sharing turned on, should they be on or off? It's on my home computer and I do not share anything

just noticed on my network and sharing center that the network discovery, file sharing, and media sharing turned on, should they be on or off? It's on my home computer and I do not share anything thank you.

If you do not share with another PC or XBOX Media Center, then your file and media sharing must be turned off.

    Hello Lscherr,

    Thank you for your message.  To clarify, you are able to print out your design program?  You can try to perform a clean boot and printing of your design program.  A clean boot will start your computer without any 3rd party applications, you can then start your design software and test the printing functionality.  If you are able to print, the problem may be caused by another application of part 3.  Click HERE for instructions to boot.

  • Network discovery, file sharing settings keep changing by itself and Alltel to set the network location continues to ask the wireless device

    former title: network location settings. Discovery of NW. File sharing. public folder sharing. AVG 9.0 'tools' and network connections.

    My Alltel Wireless device again set the network location. And continues to change my network settings for the discovery of NW to:, as well as file sharing for: file public and sharing: read-only.  I have AVG Security 9.0 and under 'tools' and connections network shows several svchost with States reading service connections listening and unknown. I don't want no access to my computer and cannot find any computer consultants who can get this to stop. What can I do?

    Hello
     
    1. the options apply automatically on?
    2. have you made changes on the computer recently?
    3. have you installed any Alltel Wireless application to manage network connections?
    4. What is the current network location type on? Is it home, work or public?
    Network discovery and file sharing settings depend on the network location. For examle, if you set the network as a public location it turn on file sharing.  So I would ask you to turn all the parameters and then choose the type of network and check if the parameters change again.

    Method 1.
    I recommend you to check if the problem exists in clean boot. May be a third party application is causing these changes.
    See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

    Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.
     
    Method 2.
    Also check the settings under tools in AVG security suite. You may need to check with the help of AVG on it.
    Or you can disable the antivirus software and check if that causes this behavior.
    Temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if the problem persists.
    Disable the anti-virus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    I hope this helps.

  • I would like to completely remove the nightly build of firefox. I searched for this info already and you have not found anything that could help. I am pretty new to linux. I am currently running ubuntu 11.10

    I'm just trying to remove every night of my computer. I deleted firefox 10 already. I'm going down to firefox 4, but before I do, I want every night of my computer and it is not listed in the Installer package synaptic or any other. There's a reason I want the old version of firefox, but I won't get into that right now. It is a totally different matter. But I'm pretty new to linux, so please try to give directions or answers in a way that I will be able to understand if possible. Thank you for your time.

    10 a 1 of Firefox is an older version (Aurora/Nightly) alpha.

    Is this a version that you have installed yourself from the Mozilla server or is this a version from the repositories of Ubuntu?

    In the latter case, you will need to use the installation and remove the item from your Linux distribution software.

    If you have installed Firefox yourself, then you can simply delete the Firefox installation directory.

    You can find the latest version of Firefox in all languages and for all systems operating here:

    Hello

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

  • Win 7 - XP network discovery (file/printer sharing) problem HELP

    Guys, please.

    Post here the list of all Windows 7:

    PROTOCOLS |
    DRIVERS |
    REGISTRY KEYS |
    FILES |
    PERMISSIONS |
    and anything else necessary to restore network configuration/connection, Discovery Network and the printer file sharing within a group residential with different Windows versions (win 7 - x 64 - ult, XP pro sp3, XP Home, wireless devices).

    All ping each other perfectly, networked computers have access to internet through powerful router, each of them receives predefined IP from the dhcp server on the router automatically, but still can not see each other in a working group (it was fixed accurately on each machine). I also tried to createa join and sever a homegroup on win 7 and installed the responder LLTD Link Layer Topology Discovery () I would like to see finally a xp machine on network card (without access and not in 'network')
    Advanced sharing options have the value recommended, firewall is disabled and uninstalled antivirus software.

    However     I access an XP machine fom the other and can access files of Win 7 on my IPad, but neither Win 7 see XP or vice-verse, and when I try in win 7 to access its own share files on himself through the 'network' says network error with the code «0x800704cf» "Convenience store" did not help.

    (permissions? group policy? bug registry? mediacenter? what else could have caused the problem?)

    Everyone please, don't crowd in the topic suggestions to check all the above, I've done hundreds of times. Please understand that just post something here I asked can help thousands of people have their network problems sold due to tons of discussions related to this topic.
