Windows 10: Now that Home Group and MSHOME are gone, how do O access files on my spouse's computer and...

See tile

:)

 

One computer cannot access other network computers.


So I've tried every troubleshooting step I know:

• Double checked that Net Bios was enabled
• Ran a bunch of network commands:
  • flushed DNS
  • registered dns
  • pinged and located the named computers successfully
• Reset my router to factory settings

Nothing works when I try to access via explorer. I'm still baffled by the fact that every other computer can access each other AND access this computer. It's just the outgoing connection from this machine that doesn't work.

Any thoughts?

 

My MSHOME network (using WiFi)

I've added another pc to the MSHOME network. To access it, I am told "Enter network credentials". What must I enter to connect?

Hi,

I appreciate if you could answer a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• • 
    Which is the current build installed on the computer?
    
  • 
    Are you the administrator of the account?
    
  • 
    Is the computer connected to a domain?
    
  • 
    Is the issue specific to a particular file type?
    
  • 
    Did you make any changes to the permission settings recently?
    

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if you are able to take the full control of the folder or files.

• Right-click the file or folder, and then click Properties.
• Click the Security tab.
• Under Group or user
  names, click your name to see the permissions you have.
• The permissions for the selected user or group are shown in the lower portion of the properties dialog box.
• Assign yourself “Full control” permission by checking the box for “Allow” for Full Control and check if you can access the drive.

If the issue still persists, follow the below steps.

1. Type UAC or User Account Access on the search bar.

2. From UAC window, I suggest you to bring down the level to default and check if it helps.

Hope the information helps in resolving the issue related to the folder permissions. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.
