Windows XP Pro Support?

Happy user long time no problem.
Forced to upgrade on both computers:
Windows XP media - no problem
Windows XP Pro - got “not supported on this version of windows” note.
Can not use Folder Share.
Now what?

RE: Windows XP Pro Support?

Hi,

new FolderShare(beta) requires Windows XP SP2 or later, Win2K3 SP2 or later,
or Windows Vista.

Please install Windows SP2 first, then install FolderShare again.

How to install SP2(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322389):
1. Visit the following Microsoft Web site:
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com)
2. Click Express Install (Recommended).
3. If your computer qualifies, Windows XP SP2 will be one of the updates
automatically selected. Click Install.
4. Review and accept the End User License Agreement (EULA).
Windows XP SP2 will be downloaded to your computer, and the Windows XP
Service Pack 2 Setup Wizard will help you install it.

Thanks you.

RE: Windows XP Pro Support?

I am having a similar problem. I have three computers, 1 XP SP2 Home where
it works great, 1 Vista Home Premium where it works great, and 1 XP SP2 Pro
where it gets stuck in Connecting all the time.

Any help?

Will
