| | Destination Folder Access Denied I have a new PC with Vista Utimate, I want to copy occasional files from my old PC running XP and on a home network, but without using 'Easy Transfer'. I am an Administrator on both PCs and 'Own' the folder on the Vista PC (therefore with full rights) . When I try to drag and drop from the XP PC (which I can see and browse via the network) to the new Vista PC I get the error 'Destination Folder Access Denied.......You need permission to perform this action'. If I drag and drop files from within the Vista PC to this folder on the same machine, all works ok. What more 'Permission' do I need to move files from another PC to the Vista PC? I have tried turning off UAC and setting permissions for 'everyone' and 'annonymous users 'to the folder but it still will not let me copy files from another PC on the network......what am I doing wrong? or is this a bug in Vista? please help thanks bj |
