Windows 10: A network error occured while attempting to read from the file

When I was trying to install a software, this error happened.

"A network error occured while attempting to read from the file"




Someone suggested that I have to make sure I am in administrator mode. I checked that I already have the full control. But I still can't open this file.


Please advise.

Error 0x80004005 when attempting to access Network share

Hi djeyewater,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

I understand that it can get difficult at times when your network Share. Accessing shared folders or network locations in Windows is never easy. Whether you’re at home or at work, sharing resources is always more complicated than
it should be. As classic example is the ‘Windows cannot access computer 0x80004005’ error. However, I recommend you to follow the below steps.

1. Is that computer connected with the domain network?
   
2. Were there any changes made to the operating system recently?
   
3. Do you have any security software installed on the computer?
   

If you open File Explorer, go to
Network, and see an error message ("Network discovery is turned off…."), you'll need to turn on Network discovery to see devices on the network that are sharing files. I suggest you to follow the below steps.

We can go ahead and try to enable the Network Discovery from Advanced Sharing Settings.

Step 1: Turn on or off Network Discovery in Windows 10.

1. Type network in the search box and choose Network and Sharing Center in the list to open it.
   
2. Select Change advanced sharing settings to move on.
   
3. Choose Turn on network discovery
   or Turn off network discovery in the settings, and tap
   Save changes.
   

Step 2: Check if the feature is enabled.

1. Open Control Panel.
   
2. Then click on all Control Panel Items.
   
3. Then click on Programs and features.
4. Then on the left hand side, click on Turn Windows features on or off.
   
5. Windows Feature box will open. Please scroll down and under SMB 1.0 CIFS File Sharing Support, check the boxes next to SMB 1.0/CIFS Client and SMB 1.0/ CIFS Server. If the boxes are already ticked, please unchecked the box and check
   it again.
6. It will ask you to restart your Computer. Please Restart it.

Step 3: Check if all the required services are running.

1. Now we will need to check four services.

2. Press Windows key + R to open Run. Then type "Services.msc" in the run box and hit enter.

3.
The names of the services which you will need to check are:

• Function Discovery Provide Host.
  
• Function Discovery Resource Publication.
  
• SSDP Discovery.
  
• UPnP Device Host.
  
• Also Check for DHCP Client and DNS Client.
  

4. Right click on the above services and then go to properties.

5. Under General tab, make sure that the Startup type is automatic and Service status is running.

6. Then go to recovery tab and change all the entries (next to 1st failure, 2nd failure and Subsequent failure) to Restart the Service.

disk read error occurred

Hello,



Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft community. I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.



I understand that you get “A disk read error occurred” error message in windows 10.



I suggest you to follow the below Methods and check if it helps.



Method 1:



“A disk read error occurred” is a hardware error pertaining to your system’s BIOS. Basically this error indicates that the computer is not able to reliably communicate with the hard disk. This issue may appear if the following events.

• 
  Disk file system changed (For ex. From FAT32 to NTFS)
  
• 
  Incorrect Boot Order Priority in BIOS
  
• 
  CMOS settings for hard disk is incorrect
  
• 
  BIOS mode changed (From UEFI to Legacy)
  

I would suggest you to disconnect all the external devices (printers, scanner, USB
(universal serial bus) drives, etc) except mouse and the keyboard and then boot up to check the issue.

You may check if the hard drive is set a first or second boot device in BIOS.

Note: Modifying BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly.
Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.





Method 2:



If the issue still persist, I suggest you to try automatic repairing the Windows and check if it helps. I suggest you to download the Windows 10 ISO and create a Media Creation tool and then perform Automatic Repair. Refer to the following link:



http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10



(Refer to the section "Installing Windows 10 using the media creation tool” in the above article for creating the tool).

Once you have the installation media, follow the steps:

1) Start your computer from the installation media. Insert the disk or USB stick and restart your computer. If you see a message asking you to “Press any key to boot from DVD,” do so. If you don’t see the message, you might need to change the
boot order in your computer's BIOS settings so that it first starts from the disk or USB. When you see the 'Install Windows' page, tap or click 'Repair your computer' link to start the Windows Recovery Environment.

2) In the Windows Recovery Environment, on the Choose an option screen, click 'Troubleshoot'.

3) Click, Advanced Options and then click on 'Automatic Repair'.

4) After this complete the repair and see if you are able to boot in to your computer.
