I am not able to see a sharing or security tab. I turned simple file sharing on, then off again. I think they pushed out a new policy. I need to administer properties because I have IIS on here and it’s my development environment. I also tried changing “Network access: Sharing and security model for local accounts” in group policies and that didn’t help. Was already what it should be. I do not log in through an NT domain.

Hi Linglom, I don’t understand what domain is. But i am using the administrative account. I can’t seem to have the “Use simple file sharing” in the checklist.

Hi, farooq ali
Is the computer in a domain? If it is in the domain, it may result from domain policy.
