Cannot access folders on shared c: drive except one

Asked by geistman in Active Directory, Windows XP Operating System, Network Operations

Tags: Network sharing access denied

In a workgroup environment, all systems running Win XP Pro, one user is unable to access the folders on my c: drive, except for one folder. When he maps the drive, he can map successfully and the folders do appear on his system, but for all (except one), when he double-clicks, he gets "Access is denied" message. However for one folder on my drive, he is able to access it, copy files to and from, create folders, etc. Other users can access the entire drive normally. What could be causing this and how can I correct it? (I want his system to have full access to my c: drive). No software firewalls are running. Thanks in advance.Start Free Trial
