Why my computer is inaccessible to me in Network Explorer?

On a PC with Windows 7 64 bit connected to a local network on my home network, I am the administrator, when I right click on Start Menu and then open Windows Explorer, I see a number of places in the Navigation pane in my computer as Favorites, libraries, computers and network. When I click on the network, it opens to show me "MyComputerName", which I can click to open and then view users below. When I click the users icon, a small window opens with the title network error and it says this:

"Windows cannot access \\MyComputerName\Users .

You are not allowed to access \\MyComputerName\Users. Contact your

network administrator to request access.

"For more information about permissions, see Windows Help and Support.

Also, there is a "Close" button on this window. Of course, my question is the reason why I don't have permission to access this place since, as I said earlier, I'm home all on the local network administrator?  I was connected to my computer with all permissions. How can I change this problem? Thank you.

You can quit replying to this because I have now solved the problem myself later to some intuitions based on clues, that I had during my research the question myself. Here is the procedure I used to fix:

Right click on the "Users" folder, which is a network share, under network in the Navigation pane, click Properties > sharing > advanced sharing > Permissions button. In the share permissions section, click the Add button and continue adding your user name for those who are allowed to access. Who did.

Although I am a member of the Administrators group, and the owner of this machine before adding my username, only administrators had received approval. Apparently, he wanted my username explicitly listed here. I don't know why this is important since I'm already in the Administrators group?

  • Is the another great category why my computer is slow?

    I get a lot of beach and the General slow balls spinning this month.

    One thing I checked last week my storage status. 237 free GB to 999 GB and 618 for which is the category "other"!  I hate this wave "other" category. Here is a screenshot.

    You can see that I have barely keep anything on my internal drive. I don't have a lot of applications. The ones I use regularly is Mail, Safari, Lightroom and Photoshop.

    A few years ago I learned about a procedure in disk utility to completely erase the disk space, but when I went to do, I couldn't find more, as El Capitan got rid of him. Is there something similar I can do?

    Is this large amount of yellow on the bar as alarming as it looks and probably why my computer is slow?

    Thank you!

    p.s. in another thread, I will post about a glitch that happens with my trash. Maybe it's related.

    The function of Secure Erase of Trash was removed to El Capitan. One of the reasons was that it worked as expected. The other is that it reduces the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I would suggest your download and install OmniDiskSweeper. When you rum ODS, it will tell you the names of the files and folders that use the most space. You can then decide for yourself or ask us what can be detected or moved.

    The first step in the process must be a full backup of everything.
