Hello everyone, so i have a friend who has a home network with two computers running Windows 7 and one on XP. He wants to be able to access all of the drives on all of the computers FROM all of the computers. I am accessing his computers through a remote desktop program called Teamviewer 8. Whenever he tries to access a file on the drive ( or even the drive) it says "FILE is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Access is denied". I made the Windows 7's from a homegroup to a workgroup ( all 3 computers are in the same one: MSHOME) i went into the Security options of the drive (on the Windows 7 computer) and added permissions to "Everyone" to have full rights and changed the owner of the drive to the user instead of ADMINISTRATORS. whenever it was applying the changes it occasionally gets a "Error Applying Security. C:\FILE The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. Continue?" So i can now access the C: drive of the Windows 7 computer on the Windows xp one but when i tried to access the program filesx86 folder (or any) it gives me the Access is denied error. This is as far as i've been able to make it. I would appreciate any advice or help,
