Lost access to the "shared folders" after upgrade to Windows 8.1 Overview

After the upgrade to Windows 8.1 I no longer access my shared folders. The left pane of the file Explorer has a red x for shared folders. I am running VMware Workstation 9.0.2. The host and the guest o/s are 64-bit.

Have you tried to uninstall/reinstall VMware Tools in the Virtual Machine (s) and/or uninstalling/reinstalling VMware Workstation?

  • Cannot access the CDrive folder after upgrade to Windows 8

    * Original title: that I can not access the CDrive on my desk

    My PC has recently been upgraded to windows 8. We use dropbox to store our files and of course to have a copy of these files on the CDrive. When I send an email (using gmail) I can't find the files copied on CDrive and Dropbox when I try to join from there, the message is "this file is 0bytes and must not be attached.

    Hello Rea,

     
    1. did you reformat your hard drive during installation?
    (2) you are able to locate the file directly from the c: drive and check the size of the file?

    (3) when did save the file to the c: drive, it was post upgrade of Windows 8 or before upgrade (was it already existing in the previous operating system)?

    If you do not format the hard drive and put in your Windows 8 operating system level, then the Windows.old folder would be created where all the old operating system files would be stored. I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  • How to re-enable the Vista key after upgrade to Windows 7

    original title: Activattion

    I bought a legal copy of Vista 64 bit and I installed on a computer. I then used Windows 7 64 bit upgrade for upgrading Vista to 7. So now, Vista is not installed on this computer. Since this copy is not installed on any computer that I then installed Vist 32 bits with the same product key, as both versions came in a single package. This computer is dead and no longer in use. So now, either 32-bit or 64-bit version is installed on any computer. So I decided to install the 64-bit version on a virtual machine that is the only thing that it is installed on and I can't seem to activate. I know the State of the installation on a single computer, but I thougth that if uninstall you you can reinstall on another computer. All of these computers are mine and only installed on a Vista machine. They have never been installed on two machines at a time. The installation of Vista, I have currently is in a virtual machine. Is there a way I can get this activated copy?

    If you used to upgrade Vista Windows 7 is the upgrade version, rather than the Full Installer version, so your Vista license is no longer valid, as it is subsumed under the license of Win 7.

  • Keyboard does not type the correct characters after upgrade to Windows 8

    After the upgrade to win 8 from win 7 on my laptop, that some special character keys don't work in the exact way. For example, when I press SHIFT + @-> I get "result and vice versa.

    Also the sign of the backslash works. It gives the character # and hash gives me character £.
    Any help?

    Another possibility is the incompatibility with the constant guard of Comcast program, which is not compatible with Win 8.  I had the same problem (1-0 on the main keyboard keys don't work), but once I uninstalled the constant guard, everything worked again. (Of course, I had to reinstall Norton.)  Thanks to a person of a forum package for the suggestion!

    Hi stab them.

    I think that I n the new good t for you: restore factory settings without Toshiba recovery disc isn t possible in your case! :(

    First of all I think it's normal to s no recovery disk is delivered with the laptop as you will need to create them yourself using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. That is why it s recommended using high quality as Verbatim DVD-R media.

    I think that the only option to recover to factory settings is to order a new Toshiba recovery disc.
    https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

    I put t understand why you didn't create this disk, because after the first boot, if you shut down the computer area, you get the following message:
    + Important INFORMATION +.

    + your system is equipped with a hard drive recovery system. If you need repair.

  • Satellite L550 - square black on the desktop icons after upgrading to Windows 7

    Hi people.

    Don't know if Windows 7 has simplified our PC as Microsoft would have us believe. I spent the last two days trying to understand why my L550 has suddenly square black on my desktop icons.

    What happens after the installation of Microsoft, application of a software patch updates for a HP deskjet 5150 printer. To be honest, I'm more sure when this nuisance hits me.

    Resolution true color (32 bit) upward in color (16 bit) downgrade rid my icons of black squares. Should I therefore settle for a lower resolution when my laptop can do better? Any workaround yet?

    Thank you

    Hey, Mambo,

    What exactly are you installing if you visit the Windows Update page? Maybe you install a different display driver that isn't compatible with the graphics card.
    Check this box!

    Also, make sure that the new display on the site of Toshiba driver is installed.

    Is the software patch for your printer that is compatible with Windows 7?

  • Lost access to the volume after upgrade 4.1

    Setup

    1 x HP c7000 blade box

    3 x HP BL460cG6 with dual Xeons 5540 and 48Gb of RAM, cards ISCSI HBA, QLogic

    3 x HP P4300 Lefthands

    4 x 3020 Cisco switches for blade in the back the c7000, 2 x dedicated to iSCSI traffic

    vSphere 4.1 Server

    The problem

    We went through the entire process of upgrading our server for vSphere 4.0 to 4.1 to manage a stand-alone ESXi 4.1 system, so our attentions turn to our 3 blades running ESXi 4.0u1 we used the built in Update Manager, downloaded the 4.0 to 4.1 upgrade file and we have improved our first blade and it did not notice problems as there put servers have was little used those.  We then upgraded the second and moved our main mail on her server.

    It was when we did that we started getting errors when people were losing connection to the exchange server, after some research we've seen of the event and we have been to see the error:

    "Lost access to the volume because of connectivity issues."  Recovery attempt is underway and the results will be available shortly"

    Then 10 seconds later we get the message:

    "Successfully restored access to the volume due to connectivity problems."

    This error only occurs on the blades of 4.1, we have restored a blade on 4.0 and errors are not displayed and no errors were reported with the servers on this blade.  As far as we can say it is not a network problem since all blades for iSCSI traffic flows on the same switches to the Lefthands, and we were losing the connection to volumes on the two Lefthands.

    We have a call connected with HP about this, but from the Yes, we cannot determine what is causing this problem and how to solve.

    So any help is greatly appricated

    Thank you

    Dave

    This is due to a combination of ESX(I) 4.1, QLogic and version Lefhand SAN/IQ 8.5 with the 10092-00 patch version. I did a blogpost on his problem:

  • How to reset the shared folders, showing network after modified/deleted folder

    System: Windows Vista 64-bit

    Problem: after files moved or modified, they persist in network folder, for example:\\my-pc\

    It seems that their ghosts never die. Even when I put the file back to what was before, they are not accessible, and read error message, "you might not have permission to use this network resource...". »

    They are listed under ' computer management > shared folders > actions ", but I can't delete them or change them.

    Why there is no easy way I can change the shared folders?

    answer: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    The only way I found to clean these entries is to use Regedit to edit the registry.  First the standard warning from Microsoft:

    ----------------
    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Hi Alan,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you have lost access to the files of data and images after doing a system restore.

    I would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions to help you best:

    1. Why did you perform a system restore?

    2 do you have questions about the computer?

    3. If so, please specify the question to better help you?

    4. What are the data and images file format?

     

    System Restore will return all your files non-system as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system.

    Based on the current situation, I suggest you to Undo a restoration of the system after performing a system restore.

    Check out the link and check if that helps.
