Jun 22, 2005I have a user's My Documents folder redirected to a share on our domain controller. The name of this user's My Documents folder is username's Documents.

Sharing Folder Between And 2000
Jun 22, 20071. I would like to share a folder between 2 computers. I created a shared folder on Windows 2000 computer. I am unable to connect this shared folder by using My Network Places between Windows XP and Window 2000 computers or by using \computernamesharename link.
2. There are 2 folders on my computer with following link

Folder Sharing Permissions Denied - Pro
Oct 18, 2006I have 3 PCs at my home (call them A, B & C). A is running XP Pro SP2 on an NTFS disk. B & C are running XP Home SP2. All can see each other fine thru our wifi network and all can get onto the internet fine thru our DSL router (NAT). On A, simple file sharing is turned OFF. I've got a folder on A that I want B to have access to, but not C. On B there is a user called Mary. I tried reproducing Mary's user account onto A (same name, password, account type). Then I went to the folder on A and set the permissions so only Mary could access the folder. Then I went to B, logged in as Mary and tried to access the folder on A but it said "permission denied".
How do I set permissions on a folder on A using XP Pro SP2 so that a user on B can access the folder on A, but not any users on C? In the series of permission screens, I tried to locate B & C, but it was only showing me A. How do I get B & C to appear so I can select a user on B as having access rights to the folder on A? From A permissions locations, I tried typing in \Busername , but no luck.
Moving My Music Folder From Shared Documents Folder
Feb 6, 2009In previously highlighted issues regarding backing-up shared documents to my Seagate Freeagent hard drive, I simply decided to move the My Music Folder from the shared documents folder, but Windows is disallowing me from doing this stating that My Music is a Windows system folder & cannot be renamed or removed? Any help please on getting around this to move My Music from the shared documents? I'm running XP with servce pack 3.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWindows Explorer And Folder Shortcuts Open To "my Documents" And Not The Folder
Apr 2, 2007I made the change below however, if I click on a folder in the left hand "Folders" pane, it works as before and opens the folder and displayed in the contents in the right hand pane.
However, if I click on any folders in the right hand (files pane) a new windows explorer window opens a displays the "my documents".
The same thing happens if you click on a shortcut to a folder. Instead of the folder opening, it opens a new window and displays "my documents".
This problems started when I added a new function to the folder file folder file type properties to print out the contents of a folder by calling a batch file that piped the content to a file.
In the file association for file folders in the advanced section I now have three functions
- the afore mentioned 'create file list'
- explore (the default), and
- find
For the folder file type I just have:
- explore and
- open
Any suggestions on how to put things back to the way Windows Explorer always worked before make clicking folders in the right hand pane open them up properly in the same window as per clicking them on the left hand pane?
Documents In This Folder Are Not Available

These worked before, and just recently stopped working. I am not sure if a security patch I applied did this

Oct 23, 2007New user, first time post here. I've got a problem with Windows XP. So a friend of mine gave me a copy of norton ghost 2003 to try out. Well, it must have been a bad copy because when I tried to run it, the program just hung up and did not start the dos ghost, despite waiting for an hour. I shut off the power to the computer, and then it was stuck in this loop of going to pc-dos whenever I turned on the computer. It would not bypass this despite picking the option to skip ghost and go straight to windows. So, I had a new hard drive to put into the computer (which precipitated this whole ghost business in the first place), and i reloaded windows, which went fine

Jun 22, 2005I had a serious crash with windows xp (SP2) last night that resulted in having to reinstall Windows XP (it wouldn't repair, wouldn't let me partition and wouldn't let me install windows into a different

Location Of The My Documents Folder
Jul 30, 2005Is it better to have the MyDocuments folder outside the local C: drive or to use the default MyDocuments folder that is a subfolder to the local C: drive? Why? I have been using a MyDocuments folder that is at the same level as MyComputer in the directory tree, because I was told that there is a limitation to the size of the MyDocuments folder. However, it also was mentioned that the size limitation does not exist with WinXPpro.
