Me - a very seasoned IT veteran with 2 decades of PC experience in a company environment
Desktop
Windows 10
Yesterday cloned existing HDD to new SDD
All worked 100% (as I expect with a clone that i've done 100s of)
The problem -
A shared folder on this drive, that was working before the cloning, cannot be accessed.
I have removed the share and setup the share under Advanced sharing and still 3 other computers don't have access.
The error:
*****Windows cannot access \Station09-PC
You do not have permission to access \Station09-PC.*****
I can see all computers under Network.
I can ping across the network. Internet works fine.
I can use \Station09-PC and it pops up as found.
I have not tried using the IP address.
Network has file and printer sharing checked. Guest and Public are all good. Passwords are a No.
I checked the share and all permissions are set for Everyone.
Security has the Everyone item with all permissions set.
However, under Security, I do not see the Administrators principal item listed. Is this one necessary?
Thanks for any suggestions.
