I can't seen anything on my network from my laptop. I have tried LAN and WiFi and it won't stay on. I change it to enable and hit save and it changes back to off.

I don't know if this is a network bug or what. I am using a work network and am changing the settings in advanced sharing settings.

I think that this is controlled by a Windows service. I would check its status, and check your EventLog.

(Possibly the service is failing to enable?)

Did you configure The File and Folder Sharing and assigned users with Permission and security?


:cool:

All LAN users have full access to the network. I use to be able to see the network now I can't. Something has changed in the last few months. This is the only computer on the network that I have problems with.
