I am trying to get files off my old computer - both on xp home. They can see each other fine, I have the drives mapped, guest accounts activated on both machines. For most files it is no problem, and I can copy it over, but there is an occasional random file where i get "access denied". These files are always in the same folder as others that work, which makes the problem even more confusing for me.
Also, if I use the file transfer in UltraVNC that will work for the files in question, just not through Windows Explorer.
They files are not in use, for example today a one photo from a folder of 80+ would not transfer. The same for a Word doc. I have made sure they are not set as read only or protected.
Any idea why this is?? I have not been able to figure it out after lots of searching.
