• Cannot access shares on the new virtual machines, the Win2012R2

  We have recently installed 2 new Windows Server R2 Standard 2012 guests and we are not able to access shares Windows created on them.

  I found This KB VMware, but KB Windows, it refers to only seems to apply to Windows Server 2012 (non - R2). I checked audit them access to the GPO is not enabled on this server and Ive disabled HotAdd/HotPlug ability also referred to as a work around for this article.

  Anyone encountered this? Better yet, someone else have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

  Thank you!

  Ah crud. Sorry to waste after all... the Windows Firewall is on. Once, I added an exception all worked as it should.

• After removing all snapshots, cannot access shares

  Recently, I noticed that my SIN was not always full despite regularly delete data to free up space. I discovered that the snapshot took all the space, I consiquently delete all snapshots, but the assosiated folder is now gone. I can see the NAS shows again the data are on the NAS, but I can't seem to access if Windows or page of the interface.

  You would have certainly got a popup that requires typing something to confirm that you wanted to delete the share. It is a protection device against accidental deletion of the shares.

• cannot access shares the local computer

  Hi-

  Win7 64 bit.   I use homegroup, and I have this Win7PC on my local network with XP and Vista PC.  I can see the 2 other PCs on the Win7 PC and get to their shared folders.  None of them access to the part of it.  I have the name of workgroup defined correctly on all (including this PC Win7).

  In addition, oddly enough, on the WIn7 PC, in WIndows Explorer, I can navigate to C:\Users\Public BUT if I try to go into WIndows Explorer, then fall below computer - C: to the network and open it, I see the other 2 PC and the local PC.  The WIn7 PC is called "kirk".  So, in network - Kirk, IF I open it I see 'users' share.  BUT if I click on it, I get the error:

  \\kirk\users is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.

  I am logged in as administrator (on Kirk).

  So, to rephrase, I am connected to a Win7 PC as an administrator.  I can navigate to C:\Users\Public in WIndows Explorer.

  BUT if I go to "Network Neighborhood" in WIndows Explorer (it's actually just "network") I see the local PC named Kirk.  If I click on it, I see 'User' (share).  I can't go to see 'public '.

  To make things more awkward, I could access it until a few days ago and I has not installed anything new, although WIn7 can be updated automatically.

  Help!

  Thank you

  Hi-

  Thanks for the list of things.  There was a lot of good links in there.  I went through everything without the blinkers "it worked before" and "I won't change anything" on each link there is, I've lived and all checked.  The only one I had to do something opened ports in my firewall mcafee.

  Nothing helps.

  This PC is named kirk and I still don't see files shared this PC itself in windows Explorer - network\kirk. for me, very odd, I am connected to kirk as an administrator.  I open Explorer windows on kirk.  I can see c:\users\public in windows Explorer, but I do not see network\\kirk\users

  so, I thought, let's start over.

  I went to the center of network share and changed "active network" of the type "work network" type "home network" and it is now.

  working group name has not changed so it's always "the Star", so I can see all the other no WIn7 PC and PC WIn7 himself can see that it is me in network neighborhood.

  I'll reboot and be sure to x 2.  very weird.

  Thanks for your help!

• Cannot access shares I have permissions for

  Hello

  I set a password for the admin account, and I know that I got it right, cause, I can open the files from http and I can manage the NAS web admin system.

• Ent of Windows 7. Apart from 2012 - Windows cannot access \\server\share$

  I have a treatment of strange problem with part of 2012 R2.  We have a lab with 30 workstations Windows 7 Enterprise.  They all have the same office via a redirection of folder GPO applied to a share on the server of 2012 R2 mentioned above.  All but 4 of them can connect and pull on the desktop the appropriate shortcuts, network folders, etc.

  The share permissions so no denies explicit.  In an effort to solve this problem, I added everyone and authenticated users, with read permissions on top of the appropriate ad group object that already had read permissions and, of course, SYSTEM and with full control Domain Admins.  NTFS permissions have, of course, CREATOR OWNER, SYSTEM and with full control Domain Admins.  Also, the appropriate ad group has read permissions.  No NTFS clear or rejects the request.

  Using the same account that belongs to the appropriate group or my domain administrator account (which has no office redirected) I can connect to all the workstations and all, but the four mentioned above get the redirected folder desktop.  When I authenticate my account with DA and try to connect to the share on these four computers I get the same error to the user:

  Network error

  Windows cannot access \\SERVER\Share$

  You are not allowed to access \\SERVER\Share$.  Contact your network administrator to request access.

  I think we've all seen this error before.  But I only saw him associated with NTFS permission issues or sharing.  Frankly I'm perplexed.  Any ideas on what's going on?

  Edited to add: I don't think it's a problem with sharing.  Clearly, it's a matter of workstation since 26 of 30 machines Win 7 can be connected without difficulty.  And I don't think it's a matter of profile either since I've never authenticated on these workstations with my domain account.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

  How can I change the target of the PC share permissions so I can access it from any computer on the network? Or maybe the question is from the other computers that access computer is blocking access to the setting on the PC that can't?

• Cannot access Time Capsule and MacBook Pro on Windows task force immediately after upgrade to Vista professional professional 7

  I had a Windows workgroup for years, linking the PC and Mac, but also a Linkstation network through a Time Capsule router/Hard Drive Combo.  Immediately after the upgrade from professional Vista to 7 Professional on my Sony Vaio VGN-Z750D, I can see the Time Capsule and MacBook but cannot access it.  I am able to access the Linkstation - system wonder a user name and password, and I have immediate access.  However, the system does not n = me a username and password when I try to access the two Apple products.

  Interestingly, I can access the Vaio MacBook, in providint the username and password for the Vaio.

  Please notify.  Thank you.

  IT FIXED!  Found the answer on the W7 Forum

  Access to Mac OS X Windows sharing Windows 7
  Windows 7 will not work with the Mac OS X Windows support for default share file. If you try to access a shared folder on Mac OS X, W7 will display a logon error repeatedly.
  The problem is that W7, by default, will only use NTLMv2 for authentication, which is not supported by the service of sharing of Windows of Mac OS x.
  The other problem is that safety minimum Session for NTVLM SSP based Clients.
  To work around this problem:
  1. in W7, open the control panel
  3. double-click on Administrative Tools
  4 double click on local security policy
  5 expand "Local policies" and select "Security Options".
  6. locate "network security: LAN Manager Authentication Level" in the list and double-click it.
  7. change the setting of "NTMLv2 only send responses" to"send LM and NTLM - use NTLMv2 session if negotiated"
  8. network Security: minimum session for the NTLM SSP (including secure RPC) Clients security
  9. change the setting of "128-bit" unchecked (No Minimum)
  10. click on OK

  Head, meet wall. Wall, meet the leader.

  I have a W7/64 PC that cannot access network shares. He has been installed from the original CD (simple installation) but never worked. Resettlement is not a preferred option because the client already has tons of data and applications on it.

  Other machines can access the local shares of this PC, but it can access any remote shares (on any other PC W7) or his own - in short customer service around file sharing does not work properly, although this machine can see all available actions... She just can't access. Other PC can access machines that cannot do this. Ping works fine in all cases.

• Windows 7 cannot access samba shares

  I have three shares samba on a linux machine I want to access a machine under windows 7.

  The machine windows 7 can 'see' the linux machine and lists stocks very well, but when I click to open them I get an error message stating...
  Windows cannot access \\COMPUTER\Share
  You are not allowed to access \\COMPUTER\Share.  Please contact your network administrator to request access.
  Some useful information...
  1 - no host has any kind of firewall running
  2. computers Windows XP can view actions very well
  3 - the hosts are in the same workgroup
  4 - Telnet to ports 139/445 of the win7 to the linux host host offers a connection (i.e. it is not a network problem)
  5 - Windows Media Center IS able to open the action and view files
  6. I've tried Google could find every registry change
  7 - IPv6 and SMBv2 are two people with reduced mobility
  8 - the troubleshooter says "your user account is not allowed to access the \\COMPUTER\Share.
  9 - actions on the linux machine are on an NTFS drive, which initially made me think it was a permission problem of file system, however (see #5), it works

• Dell has developed a passwoord and cannot access the Windows XP system on a network share in Windows 7.

  Original title: network router, XP computer and Windows 7 laptop computer dilemma.

  My system XP computer is part of a network using a router. I also have a laptop Windows 7, using the same network. Reference Dell set up a password so that the network is not accessible without password, reducing the risk of piracy. Now, I can not in the XP system because of the defined password.  How to reset or enter the password on the XP computer?

  Hi Scottid2,

  1. do you receive error messages when you access the Windows XP system?

  2. What is the password being set by Dell?

  You can check in the Windows 7 system if the password protected sharing is enabled. When protected by password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer.

  You can turn off password protected sharing and check if it helps.

  For more information, see the articles:

  Why can't I connect to other computers?

  Networking of computers running different versions of Windows

  As the password is set by Dell, you can also consult with support of Dell for the same thing:

  Other PCs on the same network work very well do the same thing. In my research on it, I think it has something to do with me changing the name of PC - 1, after that I created the shortcut. (the shortcut works prior name change) Recreate the shortcut is not do me everything right.

• Cannot access files on hard disk on windows xp, after I worked with it on win 7.

  Cannot access files on external hard drive on windows xp, after that I worked with him on Victory 7.I can see the file, but he says "is not accessible. access is denied. " Can someone help me?

  As you can guess, this is a permissions problem.  Here, it makes a difference if you have XP Home or Pro you have to safe boot mode to change permissions in the House.

  My crystal ball says that your external drive is formatted with the NTFS file system.  When you connected to Windows 7 (or any other computer besides), the files have been added that this user permissions apparently understood that only Win 7 has access to.  There are several ways to handle this...

  Is to save on all your files and reformat the external hard drive with a FAT32 file system and then support files.  You will have no problems of permissions with FAT32, but you can't have any higher than 4 GB single file either.

  Another way is as an administrator, to 'Ownership' of all the files on the disk
  "How appropriate a file or a folder in Windows XP"
     <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308421 >
  but this could get old if the drive moves back.

  Yet another approach is to give "Everyone" full access to everything on the drive.  This may or may not protect against new folders or files added, but may be worth a try:
  As a user administrator, open a command window:
  Start-> Run-> "cmd".
  Then, enter the command:
  CACLS E:\/t/e/c/g everyone: F
  (where I am assuming that your external drive is mounted as "E:" - change of real player)

  I hope that something more top is useful...

• I can see other computers on a network of peer to peer windows XP but cannot access their shared files and the shared printer.

  I can see other computers on a network of peer to peer windows XP but cannot access their shared files and the shared printer. The computers are connected by a switch, fixed IP addresses that are correctly configured and point to a DNS server outside the network. When I try to open the icon for one of the computers, he asked for credentials. I try to type the user name for the computer that is sharing the resource and the password. It is the user account whose computer is loged on and belongs to the Administrators group. for example: user name (Computer1\username) password (password). It does not work. The Windows Firewall is disabled on all computers. It worked well there 2 days. I can't find anything wrong with the network settings. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you.

  If the portion of the machine has activated - Simple file sharing (i.e. it is XP Home or it is XP Pro with Simple (default) file sharing) - while all file sharing connections authenticate as user 'guest '.  It will not matter what username / password you provide, it will attempt to authenticate as 'guest '.  If the guest user has received a password or the guest account is not active, you will experience the symptoms you describe.

  If the serving machine running XP Pro and Simple file sharing is disabled, then you should be able to connect by specifying the user as computer\user and the password to connect.  To turn off Simple file sharing:
