• Can't see anything in network in Win Explorer #2

  I tried to answer the technology last July, but no response so to trigger this problem recently, I'm it reposting here.

  Network Win Explorer shows nothing, including the local computer.  Otherwise, the network works fine because Outlook on the affected computer can open the PST on the other computer, and the other computer can see the shared folders on the computer. Both are newly built Win 7 Pro SP1 machines. Updates are ongoing.

  Yes - we have checked the settings sharing advanced and discovery network is on and all the other settings are good.  No error message.

  A technician responded with:

  That and some how simply showed once again without knowing what caused the problem.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  A month later, all items under Network disappeared again.

  Network discovery is on.

  Made a boot safe mode with networking and nothing comes in network in Win Explorer.

  Other network connections work fine.

  The affected computer can print to the network printer and open the PST to Outlook from the network. And another computer can see the shared folders on the computer.

  As a solution, I traced the My Documents folder on the second computer by typing the path, and it worked. Of course the function go to map a drive showed nothing as part of Windows Explorer.

  I had done a vast overhaul of the network, and I'm sure that we looked under network in Win Explorer because we changed the names of computers and fixed the Outlook profile so that customers could more easily identify which computer was.

  Since it just happened again seemingly out of nowhere, we did a scan of this computer with MS Sec Essentials full virus/mw and found nothing.

• Can't see anything in network in Win Explorer

  Network Win Explorer shows nothing, including the local computer except the router [Luxul xbr-2300 company double-wan] which is kind of weird because I've never seen a router appear like that.  Otherwise, the network works fine because Outlook on the affected computer can open the PST on the other computer, and the other computer can see the affected computer. Both are newly built machines Win 7 Pro.

  Yes - we have checked the settings sharing advanced and discovery network is on and all the other settings are good. The customer says it worked very well and it was working fine when I left it there 3 days, but that night she 'magical' stopped working and we know how it goes.  :-)

  I've not seen this problem before and can't think what to do except completely remove the network and uninstall the NIC drivers, reboot, install NETWORK card drivers and set up the network from scratch.

  Any ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

• Windows 7 does not see the xp on network machines

  We are a store Dell running XP Pro on peer-to-peer networks... deployment of Windows 7 Pro workstations and laptops. Out-of-the-box, we put it sharing, discovery, working group; etc. However, some of the machines Win 7 do not see network XP machines and thus cannot use the graphical interface to map to different files and resources. You can their ping, set using "Net Use" or "Add a network location" or "Connect Player" as long as you know the complete path (ie: \\server\server_share\home\bill\cad\cnc.) But you can't see them in the network window to map the drive to records letters. I have studied this issue, has visited many forums and talked to many other tech all with the same question. The conclusion seems to be because it is a Win 7 problem not addressed XP came out. So the current thinking seems to be to use the commands Net use in an autoexec.bat file. So to use the latest version of Windows with XP, we need to use commands BACK maps automatically records. A huge advances in technology. Really? Tell us we're wrong and there is an answer?

• Network problem between the machines Win XP and Win 7

  I have 2 machines, a desktop and a laptop.  The office is currently running Windows 7 Pro (installed on 2010-01-01) and the laptop is running Win XP Pro.

  The desktop (Win 7) can see the laptop (XP) on the network and can access the shared folders.

  However, the reverse is not true.  The laptop can detect the office as a computer on the network.  I can double click the icon and see the files of office that are shared.  But when I try to access the content of the files, I get a message that says I don't have permissions and contact the system administrator.

  I also have a problem with the shared printer (connected to desktop Win 7).  Before the upgrade both machines can print, after the upgrade, the laptop (Win XP) stopped printing.  I installed the XP drivers for the printer (using the functionality of additional drivers) on Win 7, deleted the printer on the XP computer connection and he still added.  The XP machine was able to find the printer on the network, but when I try to print, I get an arror message saying that "(l'imprimante peut être désactivé, pas branché ou les pilotes ne sont pas installés)."

  I think that the two problems are related, but I can't understand where is the problem.  Print and file sharing is 'on' on both computers, the firewall is configured to allow printing the file and shares, folders are set to 'share', with "everyone" under permissions and both machines have the same network name.

  Any ideas? Am I missing something?  Is it possible to reset all default values so I can set up the network again from scratch?

  Thanks in advance a lot.

  Probably, you have a misconfigured firewall and/or do not have matching accounts/passwords user on both machines.
  Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

  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).

  XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

  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.

  F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response.

• Cannot access the name \\computer 0 error code x 80070035 using 2 machines Win 7 Professional x 64

  Makes me crazy!

  State of the computer 1: Norton 360 on. Wired Ethernet for Linksys router. This Computer Configuration initially homegroup. User name and password on both machines. 2 computer can see this machine as expected - sweet!

  State of the computer 2: uninstalled Norton 360. Windows Firewall is off. Wired Ethernet for Linksys router. User name and password on both machines. This computer cannot be seen by computer 1 grrrrr!

  I left home group on both machines several times without success. Several reboots. Convenience stores are worthless. I tried a lot of things posted on this forum and others. My Win 7 machines see my XP machines without problem. All computers in the same workgroup. I can ping computer 2 1 computer and vice versa.

  Earlier this week, it's the opposite problem. 2 computer could not see Computer1. Even old 'advanced sharing' has failed. After 3 days of forums and try things, I reinstalled Win 7 on both computers and everything was fine. Very painful and I am reluctant to reinstall all my software until this problem is fixed permanently.

  Does anyone have a short solution to reinstall Win 7?

  Any ideas why it continues to be? I set up a wireless network first network printer, and then wired, then to the USB. I uninstalled all the software of printer, but that did not help.

  Hi Jack_W,

  Since you are able to see and access computer 2 1 computer and unable to see the computer from computer 1 2. I suggest you first with the computer to check if network discovery is enabled on the computer.

  To turn on network discovery

  1. Open advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click network and sharing Center, and then in the left pane, click change advanced sharing settings.

  2. click on the chevron to expand the current network profile.

  3. If network discovery is off, under the Discovery Network, click turn on network discovery, and then click save changes. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  Also, you can access the link and follow the steps and check if it helps to see the computer 2.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/why-can-t-I-connect-to-other-computers

  You can also check if you can access computer computer 2 1 by opening with the command run and typing in the IP address of computer 2.

  To do this, follow the steps in the computer 1.

  1. Click Start
  2. In the start menu search box type computer 2 \\ipaddress\ and press on enter for example: \\192.168.0.2\

  Check if it opens and connects to the computer 2 in the network.

  Also, you can try to start the computer in safe mode with network and see if they can see each other.  To boot to the desktop in safe mode with network keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start it in safe mode with select network and press ENTER.

  Access the link to learn more about how to start the computer in safe mode:

• Network with win 7 & 8

  I have a PC with Win 7 Home premium 64-bit with the printer via the USB port and the router via ethernet, we have a laptop running Win 8 and struggling to set up a homegroup or allowing printing from laptop to the printer. It is possible at all? It doesn't seem like an unusual combination, then why is tedious to put in place?

  You download and install the Win8 driver for the printer on your computer of Win8?
  You have an ethernet and USB connections at the same time? Many printers do not allow at the same time. Usually, what you need is to connect the printer to the router ethernet and IP address of the printer to connect to it.
  (I had on my HP, connect the printer to each machine that would use it via the USB port for the initial Setup, but after that it is only connected to the router.) I have a Win7 and WinXP Win8 mixed environment, and it works as a network printer on all three machine.)

• Cannot open and view the files on a Vista Home Premium 32-bit networking machine

  My laptop running Vista Home 32-bit pre SP2 has been networked with my desktop running XP V2002 Pro SP 3 for a long time.  Until recently, the files were shared back without problem.  After a Windows Update, a few days ago my Vista machine keep gel.  After a diagnosis, I have disabled some startup software Google and McAfee and services programs and did a system restore to March 31 to resolve the problem of gel.   However, I can't restore the capacity on the laptop of Vista file sharing.  This Vista laptop is able to ping the XP machine and see and access the files on the XP machine.  But the XP machine can't Ping the Vista laptop (application expires) and when you click on the list of the Vista laptop for the task force on the XP machine, it gives the error message \\Laptop is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.  The network path was not found. I tried various fixes suggested.  All have failed. (1) turned power off the modem cable & wireless router, restarted and connected the modem and router computers in after the computer restarted. (2) Turned off all 3rd party software and even restarted the laptop Vista in safe mode with network.  Could not even Ping the laptop of Vista on the XP machine or access the notebook icon in the Working Group in MyNetwork places. (3) Made that exception file sharing and printer is selected in the Windows Firewall settings. (4) checking network and sharing Center.  Discovery of the network, file sharing, sharing public folders, & Printer Sharing set on "On".  Sharing still protected by password set to 'Off '. (5) group named network WORKING Group on both machines. (6) the fact that individual records are always set to 'share '. (7) in the properties of wireless network connections, Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) has been disabled. (8) has a netsh winsock reset on the Vista laptop.   Am I missing something else? This problem would go away if I have upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 on the laptop / Windows 7 can network with a XP Pro machine? Thanks to all those who have ideas on what the problem may be.

No, other machines are available... and will have remote desktop also does not work if I have an address user name and password and IP address of the remote computer running xp...  Help me.

  Hi NIRAJ KARKI,.

  You can't use Remote Desktop connection to connect to remote computers running Windows XP.

  This package contains the Link Layer Topology Discovery () LLTD Responder. The network map on a computer running Windows Vista presents a graphical view of the computers and devices on your network and how they are connected using the LLTD protocol. The LLTD Responder must be installed on a computer that is running Windows XP before it can be detected and appear on the network map. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

  I suggest to install Layer Topology Discovery LLTD Responder (KB922120) (Link) and check if the problem is resolved.

• Notes not available to PC 5 a slide machine Win 7

  Just put Captivate on a Win 7 machine.  When I opened the possibility to drag the Notes in the Windows menu is grayed out.  I know I've seen different things about quirks with work with Win 7 and CP5, but I didn't know it's maybe one.  I downloaded all the intervention agents so I don't know what to do now.

  Thank you

  Hi Susan,.

  It is very strange, has always worked with CP5 since its release on a machine Win7 with CP4, there were several issues, depending on the machine but not with 5. Did you start CP as an administrator? Try the CTRL-ALT-N shortcut. Slide notes are not available in any workspace, nevermind, you must add it to the Windows menu. Try the usual troubleshooting: clear the cache (if it is a new copy, will not help that much), delete preferences (?).
