    Cannot connect to PC in network: username or password incorrect


    Hi Guys
    Sorry to have to ask, but after months I still cannot access the media PC from any PC aside from mine. We have 7 Windows PC's plus phones. The kids (and I) would like to access the media PC from their devices. ALL Win 10.

    I can access the media PC from my PC (UD5) but that is all. I can access everything on the network.

    We can see the PC (called ebay7753 - I got it from eBay) but when we try to access the files we get "username or password is incorrect".

    Here is my first dumb question:

    1. I am using the username on the PC that I am on - is this correct?
    2. I am using the password that I "think" is the network password.

    Then - username or password is incorrect

    Hope you can help?? Thank you

    :)

    Incorrect Password With Networked Computers

    At work we have a PC that hosts all of the files everyone uses in the office. It used to have XP on it, as most of the PCs in the office do, but I put Windows 7 on it this time. Now I'm having a slight issue where everytime the XP computers log on, the first time they try and access the network drive they all get a window that says "Connect to \\Server\Data Files", then the actual message says "Incorrect password or unknown username for: \\Server\Data Files.

    There is a place to type a username, which has NX02\Server at the moment, and if I type the correct password, it works and they can connect until they restart again. NX02 is the PC I'm on trying to connect to the Server.

    I have a Windows 7 PC in the office I use and it doesn't have this problem. How can I resolve this? My coworkers think it's annoying.

  3. Incorrect Password With Networked Computers

    Ive had the same issues. I think it has to do with the way Windows 7 handles the workgroup.

    Username or Password incorrect when connecting to network computers

    I have a problem in connecting the network computers.

    It keep saying Username or Password incorrect when connecting to network computers whenever i use the correct username and password.

    I don't have issue in other OS.
