    [COLOR=rgba36, 39, 41, 1]I have an Windows Server 2012. I have shared folders on the Windows Server. The users map them by mapping as a Network Drive. I do not have problems with any other user/Computer. Usually I access the shared folders through server name or IP Address. But, at a new lap top, I can not access it. I get the error:[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba36, 39, 41, 1]PC is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The computer is on Windows 10 PRO 20H2 Version could it be that a reason? [/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba36, 39, 41, 1]
    1. I can ping the machine.
    2. I can remote desktop connect to the machine.
    3. The machine is on the same subnet
    4. When I try with my firewall turned off the same happens.
    5. I ensured: "Turn on network discovery" is set.
    6. I uninstalled the antivirus at the client.
    7. the computer is not member of the work domain but even when I connect it there is no difference
    8. When I add the server IP with the username and password for the user at Credential manager,sometimes I am able to connect the network drivers, but after the restart I loose the connection and I have to do point 8 again and sometimes it works sometimes it does not.
    9. I have tried also with other users, but again I have the same results...
    [/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba36, 39, 41, 1]What else I should try? Could it be related with the new update of Windows? It did not happened before this kind of issue...[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=rgba36, 39, 41, 1]Looking forward to hear your ideas.[/COLOR]

  2. Help needed with simple wired network

    Step one- Connect all PC's to router, and then the router to the modem. PC's go to router by the ports labeled "1-4" on the back of the router. WAN port goes to router. Power up all network equipment, and then systems.
    Step two- Power on the computer connected to port one. Go into router settings at 192.168.0.1 and configure internet, dyndns, firewall, etc.
    Step three- Go to "network set up wizard" in windows. (Network places- network set up wizard). The rest is self explanatory.
    Step four- right click on each drive and printer you want to share, and then configure sharing preferences. Should be easy enough.
    Step five- right click my computer, and the select "map network drive". Using the network address for each piece of hardware you shared, assign network drive letters.

    Congratulations, you have a fully operational network. Happy Gaming! *Toast :toast:

    Losing network connection

    Hello Dear, if you have a laptop or a PC with a wireless network adapter, you can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks. The wireless networks will only appear if your PC has a wireless network adapter installed, the adapter is turned on, and the wireless access point is in range.

    1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.

    2. In the left pane, under Network Tasks, click View available wireless networks.
    In case, If you don't see the network you want to connect to, click Refresh network list. If you see the network but the signal is weak, move the PC closer to the wireless router.

    3. Click the network you want to connect to, and then click Connect.

    4. If you're connecting to a secure network, type the security key, and then click OK.

    I Hope you solve out your query soon.
