Unable to share the drive C on the same machine Win7 (can on others)... OS refuses to accept the option "share the folder.

This computer worked fine until two days ago, when an upgrade of the software McAfee killed my internet access and AT & T has removed (by chance, they say) my static IP. They have restored these and I have reassigned IPs and dumped McAfee. Now I can access the Internet but can not reach one of my other machines. It's particularly frustrating when I follow the steps to share the C drive, nothing happens, and I have no shared status. Of course, I can't map the drive. I'm assuming that somethings that's hard shot in the registry, but this is way beyond my skill level. Help will be greatly appreciated.

I came across a weird solution, namel map drives in virtual XP and transfer files to the parent program. I don't know why it works, or more to learn from this, but it works what.

I also tried a number of suggestions on the Web to change the registry entries. Despite assertions to the contrary, none worked for me. Not too surprised if two other computers more my iPad and iPhone have no problem to share with the network devices.

  • Unable to create the folder inside the Windows libraries?

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium operating system and I have problems of organization of the files with their library system.

    If you need a good laugh, read the help files. For example, any question about this Windows Help topic will take you to "libraries: frequently asked questions.

  • How to restore the permissions for the folder

    I work with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 10.

    Initially I tried see my Cookies folder and eventually he finds in C:\Users\(my user name).  I wanted to look at the files and potentially manually remove some, but I was not allowed access to the folder.  I am the sole owner and the user of that PC.  I figured it would give me full permission for files and folders.

    I tried to change the permissions on the folder, and even if the properties show that I have all permissions except "Special permissions" I was unable to open the folder.

    A second possibility, I changed the permissions 'All' allow all these same permissions - I clicked on full control.  A warning window appears saying that there are permissions that were more in agreement and it is potentially unstable.  I then decided to cancel this change all the permissions back, but am currently not able to restore the original permissions.  I am really unable to change all permissions to this folder now.

    I would like to restore the permissions on this folder Cookies in their original condition / by default.  Can someone help me?

    ALSO: since my original post, I noticed that in the icon beside my C:\username\ subdirectory when you view it in Solution Explorer, there is a lock.  I don't know if it was there before.  Is this a normal representation / by default to the directory?

    Thank you.

    Take a look in the folder c:\windows\system32\drivers for this file (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive):

    Tcpip.sys

    If the file is missing, you must replace it.

    We know that XP likes to keep the backup copies of critical system files in this folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

    Look there for a backup copy of the file tcpip.sys and paste in the c:\windows\system32\drivers folder where it belongs.

    If you do not see a copy in the dllcache folder, search for a copy here:

    c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

    If you do not see here, you can download it from my SkyDrive and network disks exceeds the system afflicted on a USB or floppy drive.

    I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows\System32
    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

    When you see the files available for download, you can not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc.), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser is unable to save the file with an extension (by example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

    You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file called tcpip when the name of the file should really be called tcpip.sys (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

    You then put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

    Hi Simon,.

    The ATI for the Aspire 7540 driver was released over 6 years ago and has been downloaded tens of thousands of times. I downloaded and tested the file on our network of company without problem. I think that you can experience a false positive if your anti-virus is indicating that he has a problem.

  • Error message "unable to copy the file"hiberfil", it is used by another person or program." Problem copying content from your PC to external hard drive.

    Original title: problem to copy content from your PC to external hard drive.

    I use Windows XP 2000 and am trying to restore my pc to factory settings as it is continuously 'stick '. When you try to copy my drive "c" on an external drive I get a message saying "unable to copy the file"hiberfil", it is used by another person or program." Close any program that might be using the file and try again "." What is 'hiberfil' and how do I close it down as I am not aware that I use?

    Concerning

    Pete

    The hiberfil.sys will be created every time that you start... If you put in hibernation enabled in your control panel, Power Options and the file is 'open' to think that you can actually choose to Hibernate at any given time.  When you Hibernate XP gives a note of it and will write a hiberfil.sys sometimes important in the c:\ folder so that when XP fires again upwards and returns from hibernation, XP will read the hiberfil.sys file and return to the situation that you were in when you put into hibernation.

    I use to be a chronic hibernant because it takes less time to return after hibernation as a cold start.  Sometimes, it can actually be slower that a cold so start your system based on the amount of RAM has.  The more RAM you have, the more your hiberfil.sys will, if sometimes it's faster to move with just a cold start if you Hibernate (26,03 seconds for me).

    If hiberfil.sys is giving you a hard time (you would not in any way copy it) disable hibernation in your Power Options and the file will be deleted immediately since it would be is no longer necessary.  That would solve this, but if you are trying to copy the entire C drive, you will have other files to complain after that.

    It is certainly possible to make a complete copy of the C drive, if you want, but you will have to initialize on something next to your drive hard if you want to do this so the XP files are not used - then you can copy anything and everything.  You can get some imaging software of disc that will also help you.

    It depends on what the problem is you want to solve and what you wand to end up with when you're done (so far, unspecified).

    I would work on figure our why your XP is paste and fix it in place.  XP should not be sticky.
