There are three Windows 7 64 bit machines on our homegroup. Two work fine together and both of them can access the material on the problem 3rd machine as well as each other. However the third machine cannot access the material on either of the other two even though their icons and folders show under "Homegroup" on the problem 3rd machine. I have followed instructions Ultimate Troubleshooting Guide for Windows 7 HomeGroup Connection Issues and elsewhere on both the problem 3rd machine and one of the other two. No change. I have tried with the problem machine hard wired to the network and connected via wi-fi. Makes no difference. Clicking, in Homegroup on the 3rd machine on a shared folder on either of the other two machines gets the message "Windows cannot access", code as above, it also says "Network Path Not Found" and then offers a diagnosis routine which fails to identify the problem and then has you going round in circles.The problem machine is running Home Premium as is one of the OK machines, the other is running Ultimate. All three are running AVG Internet Security 2012 which I have also disabled on the problem and ok machines separately and simultaneoulsy - it made no difference.
So over the past few days, I've painstakingly setup a new Sandy Bridge PC just the way I like it and was preparing to transplant it into my existing system when I discovered I can't access any network shares! It worked fine when it was a completely clean install with just the driver loaded.
System A: DIY Sandy Bridge PC with Windows 7 x64 SP1. System B: DIY Athlon 64 X2 PC with Windows 7 x86. System C: Gateway Notebook with Windows 7 x86.
All systems are using MSE for AV, have the firewall and password protected sharing OFF. Network discovery, file and printer sharing, and public folder sharing are on. A gives me error code 0x80070035 (network path not found) when I try to acceses any shares on the network, even its own. A only sees B on the network, not C. B and C can access all shares, inlcuding A's shares. All the systems can ping each other. I thought perhaps when I was setting up A that I disabled a service or feature that caused this, but I've set everything back to way it was and it still doesn't work. I've also tried a second NIC.
have a new HP lap top running Win 7 64 bit, A new Lenovo Think Centre running Win 7 32 Bit, connected wirelessly to my router. Have set up a Homegroup between these two computers and they work OK, My problem, my older PC running Win Vista 64 bit is connected to the same Netcom NB6 plus 4w adsl2 router via a wired connection, this PC has files I would like to share with the new windows 7 computers. I have tried to follow the set up proceedures although they do not seem to work the way the Computers are connected to the router
I have a homegroup set up at home, and I would like to have another homegroup when I am at work.. Home and work have a desktop PC, I have a notebook, so I am always going back and forth. How do I set up multiple homegroups so when I am home, it sees my home desktop, and when I am at work it sees my work desktop..?
I have a laptop and a desktop. Both are running Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit. The laptop connects wirelessly to the router and the desktop is connected directly to the router with a cable. The laptop displays the network name that I assigned when I set up the network. However, the desktop displays that it is connected to "Network 2." When I try to create a homegroup, the system says that you must be on the same network. I think that Windows 7 is splitting the wired and wireless connection into two networks. Any ideas of how to fix this?
When I try to join a homegroup from the virtual PC it does not show me the Homegroup of the laptop, instead it prompts me to create a new homegroup. I create a new homegroup with the name HOME (same as the laptop homegoup name). After that the two computers, the laptop and the virtual PC in the laptop do not communicate with each other in the network. Therefore I conclude that somehow there are two different homegroups with the same name, one in the laptop and the other one in the virtual PC.
got Windows 7, and we both are now running it. I was eager to check out the homegroup function of Windows 7. Now, we are both visible to each other in the home group, but neither of us can open the others libraries. When I try to open her library, absolutely nothing happens.
I'm using a desktop running Windows 7 (soon to be 8) Ultimate. My target computer is a laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium.
If I download a file, is it possible for me to set a download destination directly to the laptop if I initiate the download from the desktop? The computers will be on the same network and part of a Homegroup (if that matters). I'd like to create a folder on the desktop screen of the laptop, and have the files end up there.
Alternatively, I suppose I could have the file download to the desktop computer, and then I could wirelessly transfer it over via the Homegroups, but moving 1-2GB files would probably suck bandwidth and increase system resources on my end.
EDIT: Is this also possible with a second desktop computer as well? (One primary client, and two satellite computers).
My father and brother each has a separate Windows 7 desktop, and neither one has any problems with connectivity. There is also a Windows XP machine on the same network, and it has no problems with connectivity. The XP is attached to a shared printer that can be successfully accessed from any desktop machine on the network.Now comes the interesting bit: I have a laptop PC which I upgraded to Windows 7 from Windows Vista x64 Home Premium. I am able to see the two Windows 7 computers in the Network list, but when I double-click on them, I get the message:Windows cannot access \MACHINE-NAME Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network. To try to identify and resolve network problems, click Diagnose.Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found.All the machines on my network have a static IP address. When I try to access any of the other Windows 7 computers on my network, I get the same message as above but with the following two lines replacing the last two lines above:
Error code: 0x80004005 Unspecified error
The troubleshooter found this problem:Windows can't communicate with the device or resource (IP address) - Detected I am unable to see the XP machine on the network list, and until recently, I have been able to view its files via IP address only. I have tried every solution I found so far, including:Disabling IPv6 Opening the desired ports in Windows Firewall Enabling Network Discovery and File and Printer Sharing Releasing and renewing the IP configuration Flushing the DNS cache Clean boot for diagnostic test Enabling all P2P services?
I replaced my power supply and now I get a 0x80070035 error when trying to map my network storage server. I've had this mapped for over a year, and usually just need to enter the password to re-connect after a re-boot. I've tried disabling the firewall, anti-virus, file and printer sharing, etc. I looked for the extra network entries that others have said to delete, but I don't have any.
This computer is running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. The network storage server is running Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. From the 32 bit machine the 64 bit machine shows up, even in explorer.
From the 64 bit machine the 32 bit does not show up except under the Network and sharing center, selecting "see full map" shows both machines.
I can't see how changing a power supply could cause a problem. I tried going back to a restore point from last week in case a "windows update" caused the problem, which did not show up until the latest re-boot, but that did not help either.
I have a readyNAS Duo where I keep all my music files, a few days ago the Raidar program stopped allowing me to browse the drives saying to check spelling and error code 0x80070035 was displayed, I can access the NAS via it's web page but this does not allow me to access the file structure.This is via my router.If I connect the ethernet cable from the NAS straight into the PC all is fine?
In a network with 10 computers, the PC-2 can access everyone but the PC-5. All other computers can access each other and PC-5 can also access everyone else.
Where is the bug? The PC-2 has the bug right? Why is it only one PC that the PC-2 cannot access?
Basic routines are checked I think: All running windows 7 All having same network sharing settings, Network discovery ON (both home and public) File sharing ON (both home and public) Public folder sharing ON (both home and public) Password OFF (both home and public)
Error message say: "Check the spelling of the name." (?!?!)
I installed Windows 7 on my computer a little more than a week ago from Windows Vista Home Premium. My home network worked fine, and I was able to connect to the internet, share files and everything perfectly. However, starting yesterday other computers on the network could not see me and I could only see one or two other computers on the network, and I couldn't see the main computer, i.e. the one with the wireless router.
When I try to click on that computer in Windows Explorer, the green loading bar starts to fill up, but then a window pops up that says "Windows cannot access "(Name of the computer). Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise there might be a problem with your network.
To try to identify and resolve network problems, click Diagnose. Error code: 0x80070035. The network path was not found." I click Diagnose and no errors were found. I tried removing the network from my network list and resetting it up, and nothing. What should I do?
I keep getting Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found error whenever I try to connect to any other computer (running windows 7 ultimate) on my network. I have another computer with windows 7 ultimate that does not have this problem. Firewalls are disabled on all computers.
Computers all ping fine. Can ping by name too. If I try to connect via IP address, I get Error Code: Error0x80004005 Unspecified error
Ok, I have a laptop and a desktop. Desktop is currently running 7 x64 and laptop is running 7 x86.
Few weeks ago I was able to access my LAPTOP from my DESKTOP normally by using the Network in the explorer. I was prompted to key in my Username and Password of my LAPTOP and I gained access after.
Now, I have no idea what happened to my DESKTOP. I am able to access other computers but not my LAPTOP. It keeps stating Network path not found with error code 0x80070035. Troubleshooting indicates no problems found.
I do dual-boot with Vista x64 on my DESKTOP and I am able to gain access to my LAPTOP using Vista.
One of the workaround I got for Windows 7 is to create HomeGroup and use my LAPTOP to join it and I can gain access to Network after that.
So, is this a HomeGroup bug and any fix for it?
EDIT: Never mind, I just re-create my password on my laptop and it's fine now. So, it's really weird.
I keep getting Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found error whenever I try to connect to any other computer (running windows 7 ultimate) on my network. I have another computer with windows 7 ultimate that does not have this problem. Firewalls are disabled on all computers. Computers all ping fine. Can ping by name too. If I try to connect via IP address, I get Error Code: Error0x80004005 Unspecified error.
"Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found" when trying to access any network shared drives. Our file server is a windows server 2003 standard edition.This problem occured yesterday on my laptop with OS windows 7 pro. I cannot access any shared folders, shared drives. I cannot access my own laptops shared folders. I can see the device on the network and can connect to my laptop and access files on my laptop from other pc's. I have checked all the services required and they are started, netbios over tcp/ip is enabled, network discovery is turned on, windows firewall is turned off and also tried disabling the antivirus on the laptop but none worked. Also tried the system restore, which did not allow me to log back into the domain giving error " Trust relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed". So had to undo the system restore.
I have had my vista pc and my windows 7 (basic) net book setup to let me share files (through an Netgear DG834PN Route) for around 18 months with no problems.
However as of 3 days ago I can no longer do this and non of the network tools can fined or solve the problem. I can uses the internet though my rooter, see my vista pc on the network as well as the media streaming (windows one) thing.
I can also access my net book hard drive from my pc no problem and transfer/delete files as well?
When I do try to connect the following error message is given: "Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found"
P.s. I know windows 7 basic has not create home group ability, but it worked with the one I made on vista. I can not afford to upgrade my copy of windows 7 so that is totally out of the question.
I have one PC running Vista (home basic), one running XP (professional) and one running Windows 7 (home basic). There is a printer connected to the Vista box, which is shared.
On the XP box I can both see and use the printer on the Vista box (i.e. a "net view \vistabox" shows the printer, and under "printers and faxes" I can install and use it).
On the Windows 7 box, however, I can see the Vista box (i.e. a "net view" shows it in the list of available PCs on the network) but a "net view \vistabox" gives me an "access denied" error.
The Windows 7 machine has a password on it, the Vista and XP machines don't. All machines are on the same workgroup name (which is "WORKGROUP"). On the XP box I don't need a password to access the shared printer on the Vista machine; it just works.
Extensive Googling has failed to render enlightenment, nor has browsing this forum. I'm sure it has something to do with security and passwords, somewhere, somehow, but I have no idea in which direction to look for it, let alone fix it. I have also read some things about workgroups and homegroups not being the same in Windows 7, but I'm not sure if this is correct (and if so, relevant).
I am attempting to access an application.exe file on my desktop. Each time that I click on it the Windows message, "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." pops up. I am the system administrator so this should NOT be a problem but apparently many out there are dealing with this as well. I can delete, move and even copy the file but I cannot run it. There is no option for override with password or grant permission. It just says that I cannot run it. Also, the system I am running is Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
I have a Dell Inspiron 545s Desktop - Intel Duo Core 2.93, 6gb RAM, 720gb HD, 64bit Windows 7
I get the message: (every time I try and open a folder on my c/drive - Can't access Windows Explorer folder on the taskbar and any other folder or file by double clicking it. I can open them by right clicking, then open) "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a progra or, if one is already installed, create an assocation in the Default Programs control Panel".
I can open applications. But, I can not open the folder for them lets say in c:/program files -- the only way to open them is by rightclicking, then open. If I double click, I get the above error message. (same issue with "my documents", "My pictures", etc).
Included with the above problems: I now, can not access User Accounts. When I go into Control Panel, click User Accounts.. I can not manage existing ones, nor can I "Add or remove user accounts". I click the link and nothing happens.
I have someething built into the computer called "Dell DataSafe Backup". Its a recovery partition/part of the HDD that saves all my files for a recovery. However, I can NOT access it. I click the "Dell DataSafe" in my taskbar and nothing happens..
Last night I was on the internet at home absolutely fine and my laptop automatically downloaded an update, since then I have been unable to connect to my wi-fi. I deleted the updates and was still unable to connect, so I tried to used a system recovery restore point and every one I use starts but fails to complete.So, I did a factory reset after around 8 hours of trying to sort it out today and I STILL have the same problem. I can plug in the cable to connect and my housemate is having absolutely no issues connecting and neither is my phone so now I am at a total loss what I should do to resolve this. Prior to the factory reset I was able to connect to the wi-fi but it was stating no network access/limited access and now it simply won't connect to my internet at all. It finds my full strength signal but will not connect.My drivers for the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n card are the most up to date and the laptop (HP G62) says it is working fine.
Are there any Access database dudes that know if using taskkill.exe to close access (to close a database at night so it can compact) is a bad thing to do? I need to have my database closed at night and I always forget, taskkill.exe works, but my colleague, who designed the database, says that force quitting access breaks the database.
This question may not be what you think it is. I am trying to fix an intermittent issue in my home environment. The issue is I am having to use wireless. Our Xfinity Cable/WAP modem sits on the top floor of our house. I am located in the basement. The wireless signal I get most of the time is very good, and by very good i mean at least 15+ mb/s on [URL]
I am taking the Cisco Network Academy classes and am familiar with network terminology and concepts. However, what I'm trying to do is take a router/WAP (using it downstairs where I'm located) and configure it to access our xfinity modem upstairs, so that I can plug in to it downstairs using a RJ-45.
Let me know what yall think. By the way the router/wap i would be using is a netgear model unknown at this moment but could easily find out.
i have my (main) desktop hooked up with mapped folders which my two other computers (laptop wireless and wired and desktop wired) can access and do what i intended them to with sharing restrictions, etc.However, my 2nd laptop that after a struggle connecting it to the homegroup will not allow access to any mapper folders keeps popping up with a login screen for THAT laptop, and my others will not connect to it properly.
Recently, a "Limited Access" signal has been coming up beside my internet access signal, even though it's got full access and the wireless connection is fine .
