Windows 10: Remote Access (app) requesting access to the file system despite being set in Settings

When I try to copy/paste a file through Remote Desktop I get a dialogue saying,

Allow Access

You must give Remote Desktop access to your file system to copy files to the remote PC. This can be done under Settings / Privacy / File system. Providing access will close this app and you will need to reconnect.
​

In the referenced location both Allow apps to access your file system and Remote Desktop under Choose which apps can access your file system are toggled to on.



It is possible this is a bug for the setting, and not Remote Access, however I don't have any other apps to test which it is.

iTwin - Remote File Access

here is the site (iTwin.com)

basically it is 2 usb dongles, that when plugged into 2 different computers that both have access to the internet, it creates a link between the two, allowing file transfer over the internet, easily.

obviously dyndns, static ips, etc - there are ways to do this without the dongle. but for most end users those are complicated. I think this is a pretty nifty idea *Smile

 

How can I setup hdd for remote access?

I recently bought a Belkin home base to use as a print server and to remotely access my HDD's so I did not have to connect them to my laptop as I watched movies in the living room using the TV. While the Belkin has served it's purpose for printing and remote access it does not provide me with a good amount of speed when transferring files.. usually 5mb/s *Laugh :laugh:

The other thing I don't like about the belkin is I cannot get it to work with any type of wireless security.. so whenever I use it I have to go open.

I was wondering what my options were as far as setting up something in my closet to use as a server for me to access my files via wireless.

I do have an old P4 rig, would this be something I should try? Set it up and just use that or is there something you could suggest that has built in wireless and allows me to just install hdd's or something?

I never really got into remote access type of stuff so please help me chose the best way to access movies from a hdd wirelessly and cost's under $150

Thanks
