Hello, Try this: \\YOUR_COMPUTER_NAME\YOUR_FOLDER Remember also that you need to right click and select Sharing and then "Share this folder" so that it's accessible. You will need to use your Administrator account to get access to this folder. Also, ensure that both computers are connected to the same domain or work group. If you need assistance, let me know. Hope this helps!

Try connecting with the admin user id and password. Are you under same network where your server is?
