plasmarox Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Morning all In the past when creating network shares on my desktop at home I've simply given permissions to user group everyone to access \\computer-name\c$ , but i now want to set up this network share on my laptop. Since I use my laptop on other networks i don't really want to allow everyone access to this network share on my laptop! Therefore I've tried to configure my the share to allow permission only to my microsoft account. Unfortunately when trying to log on from the other machine, I get "access denied" I've tried to log on in the following formats: domain\username@outlook.com username@outlook.com username domain\username but all of these give access denied. What is causing this issue? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BudMan MVC Posted October 27, 2013 MVC Share Posted October 27, 2013 Your trying to access c$ - they turned that off by default back in vista.. You need to enable reg key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System DWORD: LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy with the Value of 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
