Windows 10: Users Cannot open documents from Network share

Server is SBS2011

There are several shares on the server where a handful of users can see the files, but when attempting to open the files get an error: "Sorry, we couldn't find the (path of file). It is possible it was moved, renamed or deleted. "




The share properties have been set for over 5 years. The user and domain admins group have had read/write permission.


If I changed the Share permissions to Everyone "Full Control" then the user can open the file with no issues.


The desktops:

1 is windows 10 Pro, the other is Windows 7 Pro. Both are joined to the domain.

I have ran successfully GPUPDATE /Force


All problems started about 3 weeks ago.


Any ideas?


Thanks,

:)

 

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!

Cannot access shared network drive


Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


If this helps.
step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
step 3a remove Everyone from list
step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.
