I have shared 2 folder in windows 2012.

folder A maps fine to windows 7.

folder B refuses to map and just says access denied on windows 7.

I believe this is a common problem, registry fix?

Do you have all the permissions set correctly?  Both the share and the local permissions on the 2012 box?

I am sharing files from a windows 2012 server. I have UserA setup on it.

The windows 7 machine is logged in with UserA.

checked the permissions on both machines.
From the Windows 7 machine, using Windows Explorer, can you browse to \\servername and see FolderA and FolderB both listed as shares?

Can you browse into each of the folders?

(I.E. Identifying whether the problem seems to be with mapping the drives, or with accessing the share in general.)
