O.P. Access Denied on some/many shared files when viewing them from another computer
Host Computer: Windows XP Professional SP2 with latest updates (well, almost latest, I just need to install some updates, probably unrelated with networking.) (I had the same problem with Professional SP1)
Client Computers tested: Windows XP Home Edition SP1, Windows XP Professional SP2, Windows Vista Ultimate Build 6000.
All client computers have the same problem: Certain files (mostly EXEs, but I have seen it happen with other files too) can't be accessed by the other computers.
It just says "Access is denied."
I have set full permissions on the shared folder from the host computer.
I have also tried disabling SFS (Simple File Sharing) and set full permissions for every user there, but it still doesn't work.
I can access the file though when I move/copy it to the root of the shared directory (the non-accessible files where in subfolders of the shared folder).
However, i have seen this happen with files that are in the root of the directory...
Anybody knows a permanent fix or what causes this?
