    cannot open files on network shared drive

    Some application need both read and write permission to access their file.
    I don't have any knowledge of your application. Usually if you can access that file and copy it to you networked pc should be enough.
    I would add write permission and try it again.
    Perhaps in the software your using, you need to set a target drive letter for the application data. Some applications can be poorly written and expect the data to come from either a C Drive or D Drive etc.
    Firewall permission, network permission, application data target folder. Let us know how your going.

    Permission to access network

    Hi Kristen,

    You might be experiencing this issue because you lost permission to access the network resource or shortcut after upgrading your computer. To better assist you with this problem, we would like to know the following information.

    • Are you using the shortcut to access a file or folder located on another computer in the network?
    • Is the file or folder located on the computer that you recently upgraded?
    • What is the exact error message that you received when accessing the shortcut?
    • Are you using a homegroup to share files between devices on your local network?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

    In the meantime, let's run the Network troubleshooter. This troubleshooter finds and fixes common connection problems. Here's how:

    • Click Start.
    • Start typing Network problems, and then select
      Identify and repair network problems
      in the results.
    • Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

    If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to post a reply.
