| | Problems Saving Files in a shared folder Vista/xp I have two PC's - one Vista Ultiamte and one Xp Home. From the Vista I can see the folders and files on the XP PC - I can open them - but as soon as I try and save I get an error - There has been a net work orfile permission error. The network connection maybe lost. I have shared the folders and given change permissions also on the XP folders. I would be really grateful if you can advise anything to try. |
