| | Vista Ultimate Media Centre Edition and Media Sharing security errors I am logged in as Administrator Administrator is a member of the local Administrators group. When loading Windows Media Centre I get this error message: Windows Media Centre x You are currently logged on as a Guest. Windows Media Centre requires a non-Guest account. If you need to change your user account type, contact the owner of this system. I have windows firewall disabled The internet is working fine I have UAC disabled ( I also tried enabled, made no difference) I have windows defender disabled Network Discovery = ON File Sharing = ON Public folder sharing = OFF Printer sharing = OFF (no printers installed) Password protected sharing = OFF Media sharing = OFF And if I try to select Network and Sharing Center/Media Sharing/Change... I get this error message Windows Media Player ! You are logged on with a user account that does not have sufficient permissions to turn on media sharing. I tried right clicking Media Centre Edition and selecting RunAs administrator, I get the same "Windows Media Centre requires a non-Guest account" error message. -- Regards, Hamish Ahern. |
