Shared Folders Still Requiring Password When Being Accessed
Hey Everyone,
How's it going? I have two house mates, and all three of us are running Windows XP. For some reason, they can see and access the folders that I share, but both of their computers listed in the Network Connections > Microsoft Windows Network > Workgroup area require passwords for some reason. How can we access each others' computers? Thanks in advance, -=MaStA ViC |

Have you disabled any firewalls to test the connections.
Are you using Simple Sharing or Advanced? On each PC goto Folder Options>View> and check to use simple file sharing. Apply. Do this on all and then give it a try. |
