    After re-installing Win 8 I cannot access folders on drives

    I think I've finally sorted it now. I also needed to check; "Replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object". Now those files actually work. Thanks for the help everyone. :)

    After re-installing Win 8 I cannot access folders on drives

    Okay that sort of worked. It was what I originally tried but I think I left something out when I first tried. However when I do this I get this error message: E:\Downloads\...\xxxx.mp4 (xxxx being the file name) Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied. I get that for a...

    I'm not really that clued up on command line stuff. Would you have any pointers here. I don't really have any idea where to start to be honest :(

    After re-installing Win 8 I cannot access folders on drives

    Quick update: Just had a quick look again, and it appears to be only one directory inside another that I cannot access for some reason. This inaccessible directory also contains several other folders. These just contain files that I've downloaded over the past years, so it's not like system...

    After re-installing Win 8 I cannot access folders on drives

    Hi, I unfortunately had to re-install Windows 8.0 on my PC yesterday. I went through my usual process of disconnecting any additional drives before formatting/installing (just in case).

    Can't join Homegroup

    Thanks any way :) Pretty much I think the only thing I couldn't fins was the D-Link/WLAN stuff. Thanks. I'll check up on that in a bit. The fire wall on the PC is using ESET's and the Tablet is using the built in MS one.

    Can't join Homegroup

    Can't join Homegroup

    Thanks, I also remember seeing that it has to be set to WORKGROUP on both PCs (well at least the workgroup names need to be the same or something). I'ma at a loss. The last time I set up a network was on XP about 3/4 years ago. Setting up a Homegroup is meant to be easy :rolleyes:
