I'm sharing some files between two Windows 7 computers but, even though I checked the 'Turn on password protected sharing'. At the same time turned off the 'Homegroup' function and checked the 'use.

I have a new Windows 10 Home computer and I've selected a folder and shared it. I've added Everyone to the Share Permissions list with Full Control. I've selected 'Turn off password protected sharing' in the Advance Sharing Center.

When I try to access the share with a Windows 7 laptop in the home it connects right away without a prompt for credentials. When I try to access the share from another Windows 10 device (Surface) there is a prompt for credentials and I am unable to access the shared folder.

There are no common account names between machines on my home network. On the Windows 10 machine which is trying to connect I have run Net use * /DELETE and removed all Windows Credentials using the Credentials Manager then rebooted both machines a few times. Still though the Windows 7 machine can access the share with no credentials and the Windows 10 machine can't access it at all. My goal is to get the share working for the Windows 10 machine as it works for the Windows 7. Full access, no prompt for credentials. I've workaround steps that will provide access so that type of information isn't needed.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and any help would be most appreciated. I had the same problem. I setup a shared folder in a laptop running Windows 10 Pro, with NO homegroup and the password protected sharing set to OFF.

A second laptop with Windows 10 Home, which was trying to access the shared folder, had logged in with a MS account. When asked for UserName/Password, as chrismine mentioned, I typed the MS account credentials used to login to this second laptop. And bingo!!!everything worked. I presume that there would be no credentials request, if the second laptop had logged in with a local account, but I haven’t tried it. Hope that helps someone else, although KUDOS go to chrismine, for his “accidental” solution. I have a new Windows 10 Home computer and I've selected a folder and shared it.

Go to Properties 3. Go to Security Tab then click Edit on group and usernames 4.

Click Add and on the user and group window click advance 5. Amrinder gill neend remix ishq mp3 download. Click Find Now and look for Everyone on the Search results, Click OK to close the window and OK again 6. Give the control you need for Everyone and click 'OK' That should make that folder accessible without prompting for windows credentials:).

I have 2 pc's, both running Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, a laptop and a desktop. I have set up media sharing, play to features all absolutely fine, and can access all the files on my laptop from my desktop. However when I try and access all the files on my desktop from my laptop it keeps asking for a network ID and password.
