Number of simultaneous connections that I have in a shared folder on Windows 7 Professional?

I just need to confirm something.

Is there a limit the number of users who can access a shared folder on a Windows 7-based computer at the same time?

As far as I can see the limit seems to be 20 users... the reason why I say that it is when you share a folder, you cannot increase the limit to users who access the folder above 20?

The solution would be to install the server operating system instead of a workstation OS.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The limit is 20 concurrent connections. Remember, however, that one device can do multiple connections.

In any case you would be much better at this sort of level with an operating system server in any case. Office of the OS are not intended to be used for sharing files on this scale.

  • My hard drive went out and I replaced it with a hardrive to farm xp, now it says that I have a non-genuine version of Windows

    I bought an upgrade to Windows 7, but it will not work

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Shared folder of Windows XP Media Center number...

    I recently installed a new router on my small network.  I have a main desktop pc that I use as a 'server '.  But just by regard saving the files shared on this topic.  The PC is running XP Media Center.  Well since I installed the new modem/router I can not access the actions of another pc on the network.

    When I installed the new router I have not any changes on the pc.  I rechecked the records to make sure they were always shared and they were.

    I also checked to make sure they were on the same workgroup.  I can ping each computer on the other, so I know that they can communicate over the network.  Don't know what to do next.  IM at a loss.  Any help would be appreciated.

    DS

    It has all the symptoms of a problem of firewall on the server computer.  If you only use Windows Firewall, make sure you that there is an exception "file sharing and printer". Instead of the ping command, try the following command from a window (start-> Run-> "cmd") of each machine control to another:

    nbtstat-a 192.168.1.5

    Where '192.168.1.5' is replaced with the IP address of another machine.

    From the same command prompt window, try to connect manually using the command:

    NET use * \\computer\share

    Where 'computer' is replaced by a computer name or IP address, and "Share" is a shared folder on this computer. Error messages from the command prompt are sometimes more revealing.

  • After I had my computer repaired, I am told that I have to buy a license for Windows XP.

    I had this type of computer difficulty my Tower more than a month and he said it was difficult and able to go online. He assured me that my grandchildren could go online with it. ? It says nothing about me having to buy a license for it. was that, up to make him is me. When I left it with him he wanted a lot of money to fix it. I said keep I come back after Christmas and buy one that was good, and then he called and said he fixed and all I had to pay was $ 80. what I'm doing. I would have waited if I was sure that it was worth putting more than $ in there.

    original title: what to do.

    Janice that depends on many variables.

    If your machine had XP on it when you got it, you should have a sticker on the bottom.  That contains the license (serial) for everything that was on the computer when you bought it.

    Your type of computer should have put the exact same OS and the version on the computer when it was repaired.  If it didn't you can buy a license isn't in your best interest to know.
