Why the network location is always locked?

I use locations 'House' and 'work '. I never put on automatic because the well, that simply never works.

Why should I enter my password every time I want to change the location? I never lock back, let always unlocked. I have no restart or logout to make that happen, close preferences and open it again. It is locked again.

Does not have this problem in Yosemite on this MBA; not I have it on Yosemite on my mini... What is the problem with El Capitan?

In the security & privacy preferences window, please open settings, then click on the Advanced button and uncheck the box marked

  • Network discovery, file sharing settings keep changing by itself and Alltel to set the network location continues to ask the wireless device

    former title: network location settings. Discovery of NW. File sharing. public folder sharing. AVG 9.0 'tools' and network connections.

    My Alltel Wireless device again set the network location. And continues to change my network settings for the discovery of NW to:, as well as file sharing for: file public and sharing: read-only.  I have AVG Security 9.0 and under 'tools' and connections network shows several svchost with States reading service connections listening and unknown. I don't want no access to my computer and cannot find any computer consultants who can get this to stop. What can I do?

    Hello
     
    1. the options apply automatically on?
    2. have you made changes on the computer recently?
    3. have you installed any Alltel Wireless application to manage network connections?
    4. What is the current network location type on? Is it home, work or public?
    Network discovery and file sharing settings depend on the network location. For examle, if you set the network as a public location it turn on file sharing.  So I would ask you to turn all the parameters and then choose the type of network and check if the parameters change again.

    Method 1.
    I recommend you to check if the problem exists in clean boot. May be a third party application is causing these changes.
    See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
    Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.
     
    Method 2.
    Also check the settings under tools in AVG security suite. You may need to check with the help of AVG on it.
    Or you can disable the antivirus software and check if that causes this behavior.
    Temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if the problem persists.
    Disable the anti-virus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Impossible to change the network location of the public in the network and sharing Center.

    I'm unable to change the network location of the public to the private sector or at home. In network and sharing Center, he is listed as unidentified network, and under "Public network" is written in black and is not clickable.

    I have a connection high speed (USB connected) also listed above under "Home network", it is written in blue and is clickable.

    The affected connection is an XBOX 360 connected via a network cable. I wish to connect the XBOX to the Internet via ICS, but cannot do so until this connection is either private or at home.

    Things I've tried so far;

    Reinstall the drivers,

    disconnect and reconnect, turning on all the elements concerned.

    All ideas,

    Tourist shifty.

    Enable ICS on the connection Strip and not on the XBOX 360 connection.  When you do this, the connection of the XBOX 360 will still be confused with a public network, but everything should work. Boulder computer Maven

  • Add the network location in Windows Media Center for recorded TV

    Locations of tv settings, tv, recorder, more Windows Media Center does not outside of the local computer.  I used Media Center to record some TV shows and I want to spend my laptop on USB large network of an old desk for viewing later.   Because I can't point to this place I'm stuck.
    The files are on USB key and visible in windows media player and video location in Windows Media Center.  In other words, none of the news of the series is visible in Windows Media Center (but is in windows media player), so I can't continue to record series because Windows Media Center is not aware of the episodes already on USB network.

    Hello Johngi2,
    Thank you for your message.  To change the location of your recorded TV shows and always keep the info so that you won't get duplicates please browse to the following location in Media Center.

  • Out of browser-based Airhelp does not open in the network location

    Hello

    I was wondering if anyone can help with the following problem:

    I want to activate the internal evaluators open my help based on a browser of AIR in a shared network location. Currently, in order to open help, examiners must proceed as follows (which seems quite complicated):

    1. create a folder on their local systems: \Macromedia\Flash Player\ #Security\FlashPlayerTrust.

    2. stick the folder in the file RoboHelp.cfg (containing the network path to my index.html AIR help file).

    I derived the steps above to the procedure provided for by http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/RoboHelp/RoboHTML/WS1b49059a33f77726-484da80912ce87f5f33-8000. html

    Is there a way to avoid having to do the examiners perform these steps in order to access using AIR on a shared internal network location?

    Looks like a very involved process to just check that others in the company can open and test it. Is they do not do this and they click on the index file, it seems that the help opens, but then hangs on a blue and gray box with a progress bar that never moves.

    Thank you!

    Hi Rick,

    Thanks for the reply. We use Tech Comm Suite 3 (Robohelp 9). We could continue on the road to examine the content of the PDF, but we need our QA reviewers the opportunity to test the output of Airhelp browser based in different types of browsers. That's why we want to display the files somewhere and give them the opportunity to open them in different browsers.

    Thank you

    In this case I might suggest that you find a way to deploy to a web server via a URL that is not published. Just provide the URL to your testers.

  • Cannot create the network location in my computer

    I can't create a network location in my computer. I open my computer and right click on an open area and enter the ftp://ftp.irvinerunningclub.co.uk location but get the error message "the folder you entered does not appear to be valid" I have another computer with the same version of windows 7 (home premium) that allows me to create this place without problem. Are there opportunities for a fix or a link to an update that corrects this problem?

    Hi Finlay,

    I understand that when you try to create a network location, you get an error.

    The error message you get usually occurs when Windows try to check the subfolders of the parent and parent. If the parent folder is not configured for WebDAV, the connection attempt fails.

    Please see the article below for more information:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/2560598

    We can also refer to the link below and check if the steps you followed to create location are correct.

    This problem occurs because there is incorrect entries in the Shell folder of the user who is logged on to Microsoft Windows. When Windows Installer goes to the sale of Shell folder of the user who is logged on to the computer, Windows Installer cannot locate the correct entry.

    If the problem persists try the steps and check them off below.

    You can create a system restore before trying the steps below in order to be on the safer side.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-restore-point

    The steps to correct this problem involve editing the Windows registry.  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

    Here are the steps to fix it.
    1. click on start, run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
    2. look for the following registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell dossiers\
    3 remove the entries that show the path that is listed in the error message.

    If the steps above did not resolve your problem, then you can try to create a new user account and check.
