permission to access files from another computer running window xp__

my laptop is running window7 and I try to get the media to my desktop running window xp.

You have configured by file/printer between two machines share? If this is not the case, this is your next step.

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.

In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

Discovery of plug in the network
Open the files and printers sharing
Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
Plug the password protected sharing

A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. 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. create the counterpart of the user accounts and 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:

Start > Search box > 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).

D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

E. create share as you wish. In Windows 7 I usually share the Desktop of the user and the Public directory. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Access denied when you access files from another computer created virtual hard disk

    Last week I decided to try to save my laptop XP using internal system Disk2VHD and saved the files on my new computer (64-bit) Windows 7 Pro.

  • Homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using the homegroup.

    Group residential slow and other problems with it

    Hello!

    I have 3 Windows 7 PC-s (office #1, #2 desktop and laptop). I created HomeGroup and join all computers, so I can access the files on each of them. But my problem is the following: homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using homegroup, because it is slow and every two seconds of loading film. And also needed a few minutes to open the pictures (more than 10 GB in all folders) to a folder in the other PC. Why is this work so slow? I don't think there is a problem with slow wireless router, because I can replace my old Linksys WRT54GL Linksys E4200, which is able to transfer video HD 3D such as Linksys provide. What should I do to fix this? Should I change all the settings in Windows, perhaps in the router...?
    And why my laptop is not always visible to the other PC to homegroup? He see two others and two other sees, but they are not portable. This happens sometimes. But then I still share with homegroup libraries to my laptop and there still other computers see it and all shared libraries. Where is the problem? I also try to change the HomeGroup services automatically, but this does not solve the problem.
    If I forgot something to write, or you need more information, do not hesitate to ask.
    I'd appreciate any help really.

    The question could be WiFi in fact however try to device (hardware)
    update the driver first.

    What antivirus/security is used? Some of those who will cause problems with the

  • Password required when trying to map a network drive or access the files from another computer

    I'm trying to set up a home network with a computer that is used as a file server.  I have computers successfully connected in a unique working group and that you can see all of the computers in my 'network', but whenever I try to access another computer or map a drive, I wonder a user name and password.  How can I remove this requirement or solve this problem?

    Hi Kalomar,

    If your computer is on a workgroup, you have the ability to turn password protection on or off. Disable password protected sharing on the computer that is connected and check if you are always prompted for a password.

    1. open the network and sharing Center by clicking theStart button, clicking Control Panel, click network and Internet, click network and sharing Center.

    ·        Click the arrow next topassword protected sharing, and then click turn off password protected sharing

    2. click onapply.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/sharing-files-with-the-public-folder

    Note: If you change the password on one computer, you will need to change it on the other computer as well, otherwise you will again be asked a password.

    I hope this helps.

  • The administrator account has disappeared from my computer running Windows XP Pro. How can this happen and how can it be solved?

    I don't see that the clarification would help.

    To retrieve the getting started welcome screen (in fact, many people want to know how to get the system to the way you have it, on the contrary), see--> http://windowsxp.mvps.org/noautologon.htm

    Out of curiosity, use the command control userpasswords2 described on the link above and look at the list of users.

    You should have:

    • each account you created
    • an account named Administrator
    • an account named ASPNET; and
    • an account named comments

    You have these accounts?  Specifically, you have an account named Administrator in more the one named Admin?

    All Windows XP installations have a built-in account named Administrator.  This account should normally be reserved for emergency cases and therefore, is hidden in the home in normal mode screen once you have created your own user account (I don't remember if you have created an account with computer administrator privileges user, or if the creation of a user account allows to hide 'Administrator').  Although it is possible to rename the built-in account, doing so is not easy and not a good idea IMO.

  • Want to access another computer on Windows 7 using Remote Desktop connection

    Dear member of the community,

    I have 2 desktops, one with 10 windows and more with windows 7. Now I want remote access to the computer windows 10 windows 7 without logging on the computer windows 10. Kindly, guide me for the same thing.

    Hello Alice,.

    I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

    The computers are connected to a domain network?

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    I also appreciate that fact that you want to access 10 Windows in Windows 7 remotely.

    With Remote Desktop connection, you can connect to a computer running Windows from another computer running Windows that is connected to the same network or to the Internet. For example, you can use all of the programs, files, and network resources from your computer on your computer at home, and it's just that you are sitting in front of your computer at work.

    To connect to a remote computer that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled and you must have access to the network to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. To obtain permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it's a good idea to search the name of the computer you are connecting to and to make sure that Remote Desktop connections are allowed through the firewall.

    I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

    This means that apex works very well...
    What is the IP address of your workstation machine that has installed APEX?
    Get the ip address and replace it with this address:
