I have 3 laptops on my home group "MIGOL":
(A) a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga with Windows 8.1 Professional
(B) a Samsung with Windows 8.1 Home (upgraded from Windows 8)
(C) an Acer Aspire with Windows 7 Home
All windows are 64 bits versions and all use Local accounts with my username "mo" as an Administrator.
I have defined shares on all machines with names like "drv-c" or "drv-d". I all the shares I have only the user "mo" and the group Administrators having access to the shares and I have removed the "everyone" user.
From laptop (C) I can access the shares is both laptops (A) and (B).
From laptop (A) I can access the shares in laptop (B) and from (B) I can access the shares in (A)
But... from laptop (A) or laptop (B) I cannot access any share in laptop (C). I get a pop-up asking for credentials where I put my username and my password but I get a "refusal" mentioning "the username of password are incorrect". I have tried to add the "everyone" user to get access to the shares in the Win7 machine but it does not help a bit.
Summarizing: From Windows 7 I can access shares in Windows 8.1 machines, but from Windows 8.1 I cannot access shares in a Windows 7 machine.
Does anyone has a solution for this anomaly?
