Access to external hard drive denied on another laptop
We have two windows 10 laptops (both locked with a different password). I have been experiencing several difficulties trying to setup a sharing network, I'll get into that a later date.
Since I have been having several difficulties with the network thing we have had to settle for the old fashioned sneaker network (picture files on an external drive then connecting to whatever laptop the user wants to use). Problem is the external drive (WD passport 2 TB) works as expected on my laptop but when connected to my wife's laptop there are two folders that she doesn't have permission to access. All folders are set to share with everyone and the security settings re set to allow everyone full control. I google the problem and followed all suggestions to no avail. Why is this so difficult?
Thanks.
