goto My Computer - do Tools, Folder Options, then the View tab. At the
bottom turn off simple file sharing then apply to all folders.

that should do it

[ukha_d] [OT] Windows XP Sharing

Category:



Sorry for the OT post, but I'm tearing my hair out!!!

I'm trying to connect from one pc to another pc's administrative share
on my home network, eg \\kitchenpc\C$ and when I get the login prompt
I enter kitchenpc\username and the password, but it never connects,
just keeps challenging me for the password.

Is there something else I need to enable? What am I doing wrong? Any
Ideas?

Thanks,

Simon

PS, Normal sharing works fine, and all computers are XP Pro
