Problems accessing computers on network

[Guv]

When I try to access other computers shared folders on my network I'm being told 'the network location cannot be reached'

I've searched the net and the following fix works, but resets everytime I restart my PC.

In the registry go to..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters

Find 'TransportBindName' and change the value data to \Device\

If I do that I can then access the other computers, but how can I make it a permanent change in the registry?

Maybe you have a virus which keeps resetting it?

you could create a batch file which sets the value then run it as scheduled task at every system boot.

the .bat file should be like so..

@Reg ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters" /v TransportBindName /d "\Device\" /t REG_DWORD /f >nul

I've done virus and spyware scans which came up with nothing. I do them regularly anyway.

Thanks for the bat file, hopefuly that'll do the trick
