Windows 10: Network Permissions on Windows 10

I upgraded to Windows 10 last year when I had to get a new computer. I also got a laptop with Win 10. Now I was told that networking within Win 10 was a lot easier but that's crap! I have had nothing but problems. So I used the Homegroup option instead to access my laptop from my computer. Now, Windows upgraded and did away with the Homegroup (which you only brought out in Windows 7 so that didn't last long, did it?) but it was the only option I could get to work. Now I have no homegroup and cannot access my laptop.


I have set up advanced sharing to shared each computer/drive/files etc. but still I get the useless message - "You do not have permission to access \\[computer name]\c. Contact your network administrator to request access." Bollocks! I am the administrator and I can't get the bloody permissions to work!


I don't want safe mode booting and any other pointless suggestions that would probably go over my head. I want a simple answer that will fix this problem without having to disable Anti virus or firewalls or rebooting through safe mode. Why eliminate an option that worked? Give me something that WILL work!

Windows 10 permissions...

Ok so I feel officially dumb I am trying to copy my steam library to my NAS. Both are on windows 10 pro and both have full control in the file manager. Neither windows nor fast copy will allow me to copy, both list a permissions error? This was never an issue with windows 7...so first off thank you microsoft god forbid I want to back up my data, second off what the heck do I need to do to make this work. All I could fine online was to set full control and that obviously didn't help.

Also robocopy doesn't apparently work with network locations?

 

Windows 10 permissions...

How is the NAS on windows 10 Pro? Is it software or a share? Did you check ntfs vs share permissions?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
