Windows 10: share button is gone

Looks like there was a new update. My share button is gone in all browsers

:)

 

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

 

Share button is gray in Windows 10

Hi,

I do appreciate your efforts and time, and will assist you with the issue.

• 
  Are you trying to share from an Admin account? Because the share option might be greyed out due to administrative privileges.
  

Method 1

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• 
  Type This PC in the search bar and hit enter.
  
• 
  Right click on a drive you want to share.
  
• 
  Select share with.
  
• 
  Select Advanced sharing.
  
• 
  Check the box share this folder and click on permissions.
  
• 
  Set permissions according to you and click on
  apply and ok.
  

If the issue still prissiest, try Method 2,

Method 2

• 
  Open an elevated command prompt. (Right click on start button and select command prompt admin)
  
• 
  Type takeown /U %username% /F %USERPROFILE% /R /SKIPSL (You may also need the /P <password>
  
• 
  Once that completes type cacls %USERPROFILE% /T /E /G %USERNAME%:F
  

This should force you to be the owner of everything in your profile and grant you full access.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

 

Cannot access shared network drive

I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!
