Shares Inaccessible By XP Until Reboot Of Win7
Jul 10, 2009
Ok, another Network problem I'm having is that the 9 shares that I have on my Windows 7 machine are shared among a small network with a couple of Vista machines, 1 Windows 7 machine and a couple of XP machines and even one Mac. Every once in a while when users on the XP machines try to use the shares, they are prompted with a username and password, and no matter what is entered they are not allowed access, even a good account and password on the Windows 7 machine.
They are told that the shares cannot be found, however they can still ping the Windows 7 machine, and they previously used the shares for days without problems. A reboot of the XP machine has no effect, however rebooting my Windows 7 (then manually readding the shares) clears it up. Again, WHY

I have a wired network that has the following connected:1) My Main PC (Quad Core) with all the Shared HDD's (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit)2) My Wife's PC (HP Touchsmart) Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit3) WD TV LiveHub (Media Player)4) WD TV Live (Media Player)5) My Second PC (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit)6) My Third PC (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit)and occasionally my laptop which has Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and Ubuntu 10Often my ADSL connection drops and I have to restart my router to get it running.Once I do that, and My Main PC is on AND any other PC is on too, the network shares disappear. If I go to "Network" on any PC only the Media Servers are shown and if I go to the Media Players, no shares are shown.If I turn off all other PC's and THEN restart my main PC all shares appear again.I have been searching the Internet but haven't found anything that worked.

What would cause 9 shares that I have on USB drives to disappear every time Windows 7 is rebooted? I have to recreate them every time. I did a test with another Windows 7 machine, using 1 USB share, and the first time I shared it with the 'Share with Specific People' adding Everyone to the list, and it disappeared upon reboot. I then did it through the Advanced Sharing in the Properties of the folder, rebooted and it actually remembered it. However doing it through the Advanced Sharing on the PC with 9 shares, it still didn't remember them after reboot. Why is there 2 different places to share anyway? I want to think 1 is for remote users and 1 is for local users, but then why don't they just say that, do they have to make it so confusing. It's totally not intuitive.

I have a linux samba share setup that I use for my file server. It's setup for guest access.
Recently when I tried accessing the server, it asked me for a username and password, which it shouldn't. So I typed in guest, didn't work, I typed in the root account, didn't work.
My roommate can still access the server just fine. I checked all the permissions on the linux box, and it has to be an issue with my computer. I had my roommate setup a shared folder on his computer, and I couldn't access it either.
I'm not sure what happened to cause this... one day it worked, the next day it didn't. I tried a system restore thinking maybe some update caused an issue, but that didn't do anything. I've checked various registry keys, made sure the proper services are running. I'm lost as to what could be causing this...

Just set up Windows 7 RTM on one of the machines in our office and I'm noticing something very strange: when we try to open a network drive, it's taking upwards of 40 seconds. You double-click on the drive and then just sit there as the green bar just CRAWLS across the address box and then finally displays the contents of the drive.
What's worse is that it does the same thing every time you change a directory on the network drive.
Opening network resources via URI does the same thing. It's just strange.
I've already disabled RDC on the machine, and it hasn't made a difference after a reboot.
Has anyone seen anything similar? Any thoughts?

I installed Windows 7 Ultimate saturday night (I got it early to have a release party). It was an upgrade from Vista Ultimate.
I can't access any of my network shares. I am running a NSALite2 server with 3 drives and a Linksys NAS200 with 2 1Tb drives. I can access both via HTTP, but can not access them via a network share. I can ping both of them as well. I am using a laptop and connecting via wireless N. I can get on the Internet just fine. I can access the drives just fine on 2 XP machines on the network. I was able to access these drives previous using Vista Ultimate.
I have read some about changing the encryption from 128bit to 64bit, but was having trouble finding where to make this change.
Any ideas?

from my Windows 7 x64 system I'm accessing data on a WinXP-SP3 system or a shared directory on a NAS.Unfortunately this fails after the Windows 7 system had been put to hibernate and waked up again.The network adapter, however, works fine. It can access the internet, it can ping the other system.Explorer times out, net use returns with "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found."After I reboot the Windows 7 system everything's fine again.

spent an hour searching for a topic like this - and I know the answer is out there - but I cannot find it. Can anyone point me to the right answer?I have 2 Windows 7 PCs on a switch. I can see the "Users" folder on the other PC over the network from both sides. But trying to open the administrative share (SHCPCC$) Windows throws me "Access denied".From another computer I can get my hands on - no problem. I can access the admin share without hassle.Why is one computer allowed, another not? I cannot figure out a difference between the systems. Small maybe - the user names I'm trying from, is the same on both computers. But I even try using login account "SHCPCSirHC" from SH2PC, and vice versa, "SH2PCSirHC" from SHCPC, passwords are the same. Nothing, just "Access denied", as if the passwords were wrong.

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.

Here is my current network config:
2 Windows 7 PCs (Home Premium)
1 Vista PC
3 Windows XP PCs
1 Netgear NAS
all in workgroup "WORKGROUP"
all assigned static IPs
Up until today every computer could see every computer on their respective My Network Places screens. The XP machines could see all the shares on the NAS and could see and connect to any other computer by just double clicking. This morning the windows 7 PCs can see each other + the Vista machine and can see the NAS listed under storage but not under 'Computer' like it used to. The XP machines can see each other but not the NAS.
Every computer can ping any other one. Any computer can type the computer name (e.g. \NASshare works) and that gets it temporarily instated into the network places on Windows 7. We recently went through and assigned static IPs to every computer (before the issue). Resetting them back to DHCP isn't really an option (unless it's the only way to fix the issue, but I don't think it should be)
I've combed the net and I can't find anything that directly solves my problem. I've checked permissions, checked that simple file sharing on XP was off, checked that it's being let through firewalls, checked that file sharing was enabled in the network settings windows.

I have file and printer sharing enabled. I can access these shares from other windows 7 machines on the network, so I know the shares and permissions are correct. I have an active directory and I am logging onto the xp machines with the same account I always do, my own account which is a domain admin. The error I get when trying either \windows7machinename or windows7machinenamesharename iswindows7machinename is not accessible. you might not have permissions.the specified server cannot perform the requested operation.

Windows 7 install went perfect. Loving it so far.
Came home and hooked up to wireless network. I can see my server and the 5 shared folders available. But I am unable to connect to any of them. Each time it says
"Windows cannot access serverstorage"
"You do not have permission to access server.
Any ideas?
FYI Yes I have network discovery on etc etc. These ARE password protected folders, but it's not even prompting me for a user/pass. When I attempt to Create a network drive and use different credential which is an account on that machine it says "it's currently mapped using a different user-name and password".

3 computers 1 with Windows 7, 2 others with Vista. On my main Vista machine I have drives F, G, I and K shared. I can see and connect to each share on my Vista laptop. But the Windows 7 machine can access the main Vista computer, display all the shares.
But I can only access the shares for Public and K share. F, G and I shares give me the message "Windows cannot access computerf ", you do not have permission to access.... " etc. I have double and triple checked the settings for the shares on the Vista machine and I have full control on all shares set in permissions.
I've read as many threads as possible, but they all either do connect or don't. I'm in between as the Windows 7 machine will connect to some shares, but not all.
Any ideas of where to start?

On Thursday this week I upgraded my XP machine to Windows 7 (actually created a dual-boot system) and generally I find it to be OK. I have one or two gripes but most I'll get used to. However, one thing that does annoy me rather intensely is that ALL shared folders/drives on our home network show up in 'Computer' view in Windows Explorer - all 45 of them.
I find this particularly irritating and I've been searching the internet for hours for a way of removing them, all with no success. Perhaps I'm not really sure what search term I should use and I recognise I may well be missing some new feature in Windows 7 that is NOT in XP - but I really don't know what.
So, a question please: is there a way of removing those shares from 'Computer' view, i.e. the top level view where all the drives are shown (My Computer in XP)?

I have three Windows 7 computers, one a laptop and the other two are desktops. The laptop and one desktop are Win 7 Prof. and the remaining desktop is Win 7 Ultimate. All computers are part of my HomeGroup and share is set up for all default libraries, My Documents, My Pictures, My Music and My Videos. On the Win 7 desktop (let's call this computer 1) I had a 4 disk raid array partitioned as C: and D:. I had the system on C: and used D: for data. D: was beginning to be overpopulated. I tried several ways to shirk C: and then expand D: but ran into problems exacerbated by the raid array. So, I decided to copy everything on D: to C:, delete D: and then expand C: for the entire array. With the help of tutorials on this site, I have resolved all the problems this caused on computer 1 with the user folders and can now share everything through the HomeGroup in Win 7 Explorer on all three computers. However, eliminating drive D: on computer 1 and relocating My Documents, My Pictures, My Videos and Downloads have left the HomeGroup on both of the other computers with two orphaned shares. One named My Documents and the other downloads.
On computers 2 and 3 when I click on the shares in Win 7 Explorer, I get network error Windows cannot access \computer1downloads and Windows cannot access \computer1My Documents; Error code 0x80070043, The network name cannot be found. On computers 2 and 3 when I run net share in regular Win 7 I see an orphaned share on D: Share name D$; Resource D:, Remark Default share and what should be the current user share for C: Share Name C$; resource C: and remark Default Share. If I delete the D: share with net share, the share remains in the HomeGroup on computers 2 and 3. One method for resolving this involved using the net share command in safe mode with networking. I am unable to run that command in safe mode with networking due to a dependency error, code 1068 caused by the Security Accounts Manager that will not run in safe mode, error code 1084. On computers 2 and 3 I have looked inomputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetservicesLanmanServerShares and see a share for a printer, one for pint$ print spooler, another for prnproc$ print spooler and finally Users with Path=C:Users. The latter is where I now have all of the shared files stored on C:UsersComputer1My Documents etc. That's a lot of information (I probably left something very important out but I tried to give you what I thought was material) and here is my question; how do I get rid of the two shares in the HomeGroups on computers 2 and 3 that show shares named My Documents and downloads????

Had a strange issue on one of my clients business PCs. These 2 PC's are setup each year at a kiosk for tax preparation. They were working perfectly last year and were boxed up and stored for most of the year. Today I had to get the kiosk and 2 PC ad hoc network all setup and working again. Should have been easy as pie...But once I had them connected I couldnt attach to any shares from the "client" to the "server" (both running Windows 7). The "server" in this ad hoc had all of the shares from last year not shared anymore. It has to have approx 20 folders shared in order for their apps to work.I am suspecting that during the off season it was plugged into a different network and might have had the workgroup changed and then changed back before I arrived. Can anyone tell me if a workgroup name change would in fact change/delete the share permissions? I have googled and searched this site, but all I get are how to change a workgroup name or how to change share permissions.I know how to do that

I have a laptop with Windows7 from work, registered to the domain from my company. At home I have a desktop with XP with shares on it. When I bring the laptop home and try to access the shares on the desktop, I am asked to enter user and pass (ok, I use the admin account on that desktop), the Seven shows me the list of shares. Very good, you might say. That is so until you try to enter the shares when it pops a "network error": "Windows cannot acess \xp-desktopshare1 You do no have permission to access \xp-desktopshare1. Contact your network administrator to request access." What access?! These are full shares for the admin account used to authenticate.
I have a third machine with Seven on it, this time a personal machine, not registered to a domain, and with this one I can properly access the shares mentioned earlier. Also, my laptop from work, can properly access shares from my work place and shares on the personal laptop with Seven on it. So this issue happens only when trying to access shares on XP at home.

I'm having an issue with trying to mount shares on my network to a WD Live player. Everything worked fine before reinstalling the OS on my computer. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate on a Dell XPS box. I have 2 external MY book 1TB drives with movies and music. The shares on my internal drives mount correctly through SSH to the WD Live but I get this error when trying to mount from the external drives:
Code: # xmount "//192.168.0.195/Films" "Films" cifs
mount: mounting \192.168.0.195Films on /tmp/media/usb/Films failed: Cannot allocate memory
xmount: xmount //192.168.0.195/Films Films cifs user=guest,iocharset=utf8,ro FAILED WTF?!? Also, I get this info when I run the command on SSH to see my shares:

The HomeGroup shares have been a recurring issue that I haven't been able to solve, but the really perplexing one is the shared folder issue which just cropped up. Some of my shared folders still work, but e, g and h (music and video respectively) for some reason spit back "Access Denied" on all of the other computers in my house, this is in spite of the fact that Permissions on them are set to Full Control for Everyone.With regards to HomeGroup shares, they simply don't show up no matter what I do, I'd like to fix that one too, but I'm not sure what I can do to fix that.

I have purchased and downloaded both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows7 Professional (no CDs or media here only download version)
I sucessfully upgraded from Vista 32 to Windows 7 32
Then I upgraded my hard disk (140Gb 500GB) and RAM (3GB to to 4GB)
Now I would like to go from Windows 7 32bit to 64bit
When I try and run the Windows 7-P-retail-en-us.x64.exe file it upacks the box then stops with this error:"We are unable to create or save files in the folder in which this application was downloaded. Please check the folder properties to make sure that you have security permission on the folder to write flies and that that folder is not read only".
I am the System Admin and I have full rights, and have moved the exe and the setup box files to My Documentsand I have modified the directory properties/attributes but I still get the same error over and over.
I searched the posts and some people stated one needs a clean install others say you can upgrade from any version so I am trying the upgrade here especially since the upgrade from Vista 32 to Windows 7 32 was smooth and did require all the extra work of a reinstall.

I have a bigger problem now... I had a lot of restarts since a unknown problem appeared (what makes my windows freeze + restart all the time). Beacuse I restart my computer each day when he freezes, i have now problems like files and folders being corrupted and inaccessible. Can't access a folder or open program. It even says that some .exe program is corrupted or web browser too... but i can open 99% of them only not 1 or 2. I think that reinstalling my win is the only way out of these many problems i have now beacuse restarting my computer each day by 2-3 times isn't a solution.

Previous language settings default English United States. Selected and installed Greek, Spanish latin Am erica, French Canada and Russian. Click EN icon on desk top taskbar and all language icons displayed and selectable. OPne day the EN icon disappeared and languages had to be reselected. English default still works but EN icon not present when no other languages available. I went to keyboard change in control panel and reselected all the languages previously accessible. However, the icons will not appear on the desktop taskbar and the languages while displayed in the control panel, those icons can not be used to gain access to the languages they represent.
