Hello to the community,
Appreciate any help I can get with my peculiar problem.
I have a bunch of folders that are shared from external hard drives, connected to my new windows 8 machine.
Other computers/phones/tablets at home on the same network can access folders from the internal HD on my main computer.
But, with shared folders from external hard drives - despite showing up while accessing the network cannot be opened or read from connected devices or other computers on the network.
I'm a relative amateur when it comes to networking but I did not have this issue with my older windows 7 home computer.
Thank you for reading and appreciate all the help I can get.
