  1. cannot access my PC


    sorry for my English,

    let's start with how my computer was very laggy so I restarted it, after that I can't log on, when I push the power on button, there should be several seconds of startup screen before the password section but it just goes empty white/blue for a few days. i even tried holding the power button to skip disk checking but still, it won't work. I appreciate any suggestions.

    Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

    Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

    • I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.


    • Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
    That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

    Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.

    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

    Error: Windows cannot access \\PC-Name, you do not have permission to access this pc. Contact your network administrator to request access, while trying to access one PC from another over network

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues while accessing one PC from another PC over the network. For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.



    1. Are the entire PC’s running Windows 10 1809 build version?
    2. Have you tried accessing the PC using IP address of the PC?
    3. Are the PC’s connected to domain network?


    I certainly appreciate your efforts in trying to resolve the issue by performing certain troubleshooting steps.



    However, I would suggest you to refer the suggestions by
