Hi,

I have two Windows 10 Pro machines on the same LAN. These can see each other no problem.

I want to share a folder on machine B so that it is visible on machine A, with full access rights. I...

I have just emptied my Recycle Bin on Windows 10 Pro but it still shows 27GB of files in SpaceSniffer. These files are not visible in Explorer.

Does anyone know why this may be and more...

Calling it 'your document' was just a figure of speech. I meant no offence by it.

I have checked Apple Support. I did find the WINS tab in the advanced options. The problem is it won't let me...

My problem is that I get to the step in your document that is entitled 'Connect to Mac from Windows' and my Mac has the name 'UNKNOWN'. So something somewhere is broken that is not covered by the...

Hi,

Sorry, yes, I did follow the link. I forgot that I baulked when I saw the warning about storing passwords in an insecure way.

So I have just tried it all now and unfortunately am still...

Thanks for the reply. I did think that was what was being asked but I've tried the username and password I use on the Mac and am denied access. Do I need to prefix the username with a domain or...

That works for sharing one or more folders. Thank you!

I'm still puzzled by the credentials prompt dialog that appears when I click the Mac in Explorer on the PC. What do I type in there? And...

Hi,

I have a Windows 10 machine and an OSX machine on the same local network. Both have fixed IP4 addresses.

I started SMB on the OSX machine and can see my Temp folder on the Windows 10...

ShellExView seems to have cured the problem, but I had to disable pretty much everything non-Microsoft to do it. So now I guess I have to slowly re-enable things one-by-one, to try to spot the one...

I concur that getting the ISO from TechBench seems to be the way to go. I had no problems using that as the source.

I will try both of those. Unfortunately, because this behaviour only happens once per reboot, it is going to take me a while to locate the culprit. If/when I do, I'll post my findings. In the...

Thank you for the reply.

I have Norton running and it has reported no problems.

sfc /scannow also reports no problems.

The system disk is an SSD, so I don't think that should be the source...

Hi,

For reasons I am unaware of, my previously-bulletproof Windows 10 Pro has developed an annoying problem. When I right-click a file in the right-hand pane of Explorer, the context menu can...

Thankyou for the information. I think that is pretty close to what I did in the end. There was that funny business of having to run sfc /scannow more than once though.

Forgive my ignorance - are you asking me to post more information here?

PS - Update: running sfc /scannow twice did fix the problem. I did read somewhere that sometimes you have to run this three...

I ended up combining the answers by topgundcp and davidhk. I downloaded the ISO from TechBench, mounted it, copied the install.wim file to the desktop, then copied and pasted the commands shown into...

I have now solved this. I had changed the password on my account, but I had never used the new password to login. I had instead always used the PIN. So the rule is: if you are using a new account...

I made a new ISO, mounted it as H and tried DISM again. The version of the image is now reported correctly as 10586, which matches my machine, but I still get the file-not-found error. Note that...

Ah, the version of my machine is 10586. The DVD I was using as drive letter T: is 10240.

I don't know what the version of the installable USB I made today is because it does not have a WIM file;...

To be honest, I am not sure the versions match. I know how to check the version of Windows on my machine, but how do I find out the version of the ISO file?

To answer your other points, the drive...

Yes, I have. Exactly the same error. I even tried disabling the firewall, because I read somewhere else that someone had a problem with that.

It still fails with exactly the same error. Do you think there is any point in copying the ESD file to C:\Temp and trying to access it from there, or does it need other files in the same location?

Hi,


I have just used the SHIFT-Restart option to activate the Windows 10 Troubleshooting and tried to open a command prompt. It asked for a password. I entered my password but was told it was...

Thank you for the reply. I tried this using all four of the commands below. They all gave the same file-not-found error.

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth...

Sorry - that was just bad use of English on my part. The DVD is inserted in the player and I am pointing to the contents of it, not the ISO image. Still doesn't work. :(
