    JPEG files

    I saved JPEG files on external drive on a PC with WindowsXP. I cannot open them on new PC with Windows10 Pro. Error message says 'Widows photo viewer cannot open this picture because you don't have the correct permissions to access file location'. The
    permissions for everyone are Everyone Full Control.

    Cannot access shared folder

    Upgraded a PC in my home network to windows 10 and enabled file sharing as well as joining the homegroup. I can access the shared folders specified in homegroup, no problem. I wanted to share another folder on same PC and set it to share with EVERYONE. I
    went to permissions and set it to FULL CONTROL. The shared folder is F:\Programs and contains some executables. I felt it necessary to mention this since in my search for a solution I found that NTFS permissions may be picky with exe files.

    Anyway nothing worked. I cannot access the folder from any of my PCs. The error dialogue is ALWAYS "you do not have permission to access this folder. Contact your administrator...".

    What I found long ago is that sharing with EVERYONE does not mean everyone, even those in your homegroup. I even changed the owner of the folder to myself (admin) instead of System. Have gone through many different attempts to fix this to no avail. Why is
    this such an incredibly difficult issue to resolve...? Cannot MS adhere to their sharing terminology so that sharing with EVERYONE means just that?

    Hope to find solution (other than the generic, useless run troubleshooter suggestions). Much thanks.
