  1. Windows cannot access \\Server-name\folder-name\


    I keep getting that error followed by You do not have permission to access this drive, Contact your network administrator to request access. When trying to access a drive on my server. I've already set up 4 other drivers with network sharing and they all work, but when I setup this drive with all the same settings, I get this error on any computer trying to access the drive.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 search for a specific folder name and file name

    Carlos: Thanks for your reply. What you suggest is what I have been doing. I search for folders with a specific name and get a list. Then I have to search each folder for a specific file. So it's a two step search and that's what I was trying to avoid.

    I assume there are applications out there that allow for an "AND" search in Windows. I'll try that approach.

    Thanks, again.

    1803 Windows cannot access, Do not have permission to access \\name.

    First of all Thank you Eagle51 !
    Following up on your 2 suggestions. Go with the easy one first, #2. I created a new Test Folder weeks ago and set sharing to EVERYONE with no success but I have included the picture. #1.The Credentials Manager and everything that has to do with that is all new to me so I did not “Just Delete the one on the Server” It says it was Modified last year? We have not had any sharing issues until recently. I’m guessing removing it will allow everyone to access the Server? I have a picture of Server that says it was created on 8/2/2017 with a name associated TERMSRV/BRIDGET-HP. This computer was renamed by the business mgr to Susan-PC, on July 12, 2018. Not being familiar with Credentials area is completely confusing me. Most computers have No Windows Credentials listed, picture ParishSec, and were able to access the Server from File Explorer. The one computer that still can access the Server is Businessmgr-pc that does have Credentials listed for SSJP-SERVER, picture is attached.
    Looking forward to hear your recommendations on how all these computers should be set so I can access the Server from all of the computer’s File Explorer? Hope you had an enjoyable Labor Day weekend.
