I'm so frustrated with all the restrictions I have on my own computers. Is there anyway to get around them? It's my computer, why can't I do anything I want on my own computer?
I'm currently traveling and created an offline share on my home development machine and have synced on my laptop. So, here I am 1000 miles from home and I got to fix a bug in some of my code. But when I try to save my changes to the shared folder,
I get a message saying "File Not Saved" with no other explanation (this particular file was an Excel document). Then when I went to the offline shared folder on my laptop and simply tried to create a new txt document, I got the following
message:
"File Access Denied
"You need permission to perform this action.
"You require permission from the computer's administrator to make changes to this file."
Why do I need permission to create a file on my own computer? Also, I am the administrator and as far as I can tell I've given full access to everyone. I'm even logged on with the same windows account that I log on with my home computer.
Is there some way I can configure all my computers so I never have this problem again? I thought that if I had administrator access, I could do anything I want. That's what I want. I'm the only one who ever uses any of my computers.
Plus I have hardly anything on my computers that I'm worried about someone damaging. I have a separate personal computer for all that.
So, in summary, I want to do anything I want with any of my dev computers without having to jump through all these hoops every time I want to perform a simple function. Can someone tell me the steps to configure my computers that way?
Thank you!!
