Part of a homegroup, and shared files are still ask for a network password

Hello

I'll try to give as much information as I can so that I hope someone can help me with this problem.
I'm running Windows 8 pro and my other computer has Windows 8 pro.  On both systems, I am running Windows on a SSD, and I share the folders that are on a hard disk of data as well as access to an external hard drive connected to one of the computers.
Both computers are part of the same homegroup.  Both computers are password protected (at startup).  I use one of the computers and my husband the other use it so all of us, the newspapers in our own computer via our Acct. Microsoft computers also "turn off password protected sharing" selected in advanced sharing settings.  Both computers say that we are the administrator in respect of user accounts.
My husband can access all my files shared from his computer, generally with no problems, but on occasion, he is invited to "Enter network password" of Windows Security.  I almost always have this problem while trying to access its shared folders and the external hard drive that is connected to his computer.
We have tried to share the folders on your computer in several ways:
Share with homegroup
Share with everyone
Share with >
with total control over each of them and I get the message that precedes, or sometimes he tells my I can't access this drive.  Also, one thing I forgot is that each of our computers, said that the other user has the credentials in Credential Manager.
I feel like part of my problem is while the computer says I'm an administrator, I have always problems to the administrator.  When I try to install new software (this happened to me with Dropbox) I had to right click on the .exe and run as administrator.  I also had set my Adobe Photoshop Lightroom on run as administrator under 'Compatibility' for all work processes.
I am at a loss to know what to do.  I did a clean install with my Windows 8 disk to see if it was only a problem with I've originally set up the system.  If anyone can help, I would be very happy.  I feel like I'm missing just this thing that's right in front of me that I can't because I'm too close to the issue.

Hi Candace,

I suggest to restore all security permissions, then check the issue.

Follow these steps to do so.

a. open the command prompt by pressing the Windows key + X , and then click on (Admin) command prompt.

b. typesecedit/configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf/db defltbase.sdb / verbose and press ENTER.

I suggest to run Homegroup troubleshooter and check for the issue. It will tell you if there is something wrong in the homegroup connection. See the link to do so.

  • I did a system restore and the files are still there, but I can't find the location.

    I did a restore on my Windows XP system because I was not able to access my desktop because the password entry bar giving access to the Office not show up no matter how many times I rebooted the computer.

    When I made the recovery of the system, he said that my files were not going to be deleted, all programs were still there, but the photos, videos and music were gone from My Documents.

    So I tried to find on the C drive, I thought that maybe they had just moved somewhere else. I even went in the folder options to show hidden folders, but the files are not in one of these folders.

    However I know that the files are still there, because when I look at the properties of the drive C with the right click of the mouse, it says drive C is always full, as it was before the system recovery. So this means that the files are still there but I don't know where.

    I have lots of family photos and videos that I want back. These are the only things I want to get back and maybe my music files.

    Any ideas how I can find these files or the folder that contains the? Perhaps through MS-DOS or something like that? I have external hard drives to copy if I find them.

    McAfee antivirus is among the three troublemakers albums for Windows Mail.
    It sometimes takes a while before the symptoms begin to appear.
    First of all, turn off e-mail McAfee analysis, even if it is rarely sufficient.
    Then delete that email account (because it has been damaged by McAfee),.
    Restart Windows Mail, and then recreate the account.
     
    If the problem persists, the only way you can prove or disprove that
    McAfee is the culprit is to uninstall it, and then using their debris removal tool:
    If you decide to replace McAfee, we recommend a free antivirus
    the program that is no longer compatible with Windows Mail.
     
    Rather than move to another antivirus, another option is to upgrade
    for Windows Live Mail (WLM), which better resists the harmful effects
    too intrusive anti-virus products:
     
    Even with WLM, you must turn off email scanning in the antivirus,
    for the reasons explained here:

    Hi GeneVachon,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    You can try a system restore to a previous point where you have not experienced the problem.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

  • All My Documents, pictures, videos and music files are does not

    All My Documents, pictures, videos and music files are does not and I can't access the files and I did nothing to them but when I try and click on it, it says "music.library - ms no longer works, the library can be removed safely from your computer.» Records that have been added will not be affected. I understand that they won't be affected, but how am I supposed to recover all my files?

    Hey Kwame,

    I understand that you receive an error saying music.library - ms no longer works.

    Please answer:

    (1) did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    In the libraries folder, you will notice that the icons of the folders have changed to something else. This clearly indicates that Windows 8 libraries are no more work and corrupted.

    To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

    (a) press Windows + E to open Windows Explorer, and then click library.

    (b), select all the libraries with which you are faced with a question and select Delete.

    (c) click Yes to confirm.

    (d) after the deletion, right-click on the icon libraries in the left navigation pane and click on restore default libraries.

    (e) in the first attempt, default icons have been restored but if you are unable to access the libraries of Windows 8, delete and restore again to go back to work.

    Note: Deleting of a library does not delete the contents of the included folders. However, you need to add or include your folders manually, if necessary.

  • My office and my files are empty.

    My office and my files are empty. When I tried to replace some files, I was told that they already existed as it seems they are always there, but they are hidden and I can't get back them. No one knows what happened or what I can do to restore?

    Hello

    A handy utility to view all the files on your PC is called Commander free of charge, on the link below, because it displays the files that the operating system normally hides and has a search function.

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/PHP/download.php?id=107872&a=7122339&tag=601108&loc=10

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.

    When it is installed, run Commander for free and see if your missing files are now visible.  If they are, right click the folder they are in and select Properties, clear the check box of the "Hidden" box and click on apply to save the changes.  Then close free Commander and check if the folder and the files it contains are now visible in Windows.

    Kind regards

    I recently bought a new camera from Sony a7 - ii.  the first time I tried to import raw images taken with it (with a. Suffix ARW) the program says "Preview not available for this file" and then "files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom" I have the most updated version, I think as 5.7.  What should I do to get these files imported as raw files?

    Hi Bobsirkus,

    The camera you have is compatible with the latest version of Lightroom, which is Lightroom 6/CC.

    Please see the list of the camera supported by Lightroom: supported by Adobe Camera Raw devices

    You can use the DNG Converter, converts images and then import them into DNG in Lightroom.

  • .mp4 and .mov files are just BIG

    Sorry, without posting the details of encoding, is there an obvious reason why my .mp4 and .mov files are ~ 10 x the size they should be after the SOUL? I'm talking about 300mb.mov and 30 MB .mp4 before later files. If you need details, I'll post. Thank you.

    File size is determined mainly by only two factors - length and bitrate.  The used codec, resolution, frame rate, etc. all have little or no effect on the size of the file.

    Length and bitrate.  If you want a smaller file, one or other of the people must be reduced.
