#How to view program files on mac mac
Nevertheless, you're not unlikely to find yourself in a position where you need to move information between Windows and Mac computers that are connected to different networks. The built-in tools Windows and macOS offer are great for sharing data between devices on the same network, but for a variety of reasons, Microsoft and Apple won't adapt them to be used for transferring files across larger distances.

I hope that this information will help users who accidentally deactivate user profiles, and those who wish to access "program files" on their local networks.Transferring files between a Mac and a PC that are not on the same network While I know I am not an expert, and that there are probably better solutions to the problem, this solution does not involve registry editing, and is straight forward. Now, the networked machines have access to the program files directory. I went to one of the other lan machines, and tried to access program files again from across the lan. Then I exited the command prompt, and rebooted the computer. I'm sure this isn't the best, or most secure solution, but it does work. Normal users (non administrators) have access to program files though, so, my solution, which seems to work fine, was to add Users to the guest account. The suggestion that I read suggested that the user add "Administrators" to the Guest account, but cautioned that this was not recommended. I'm not sure about XP Professional, most of my customers have XP Home.įor this example, we'll just say that the groups consisted of *Administrators, *Guests, and *Users as listed by net localgroup. Under XP Home, specifically, network shares are all accessed via the Guest account. The next suggestion that I saw for fixing "program files" has to do with the way Windows allows access to network shares. Windows now recognises the account as a fully functional user account. The account was an administrator account, so, I restored the Administrators group to the user account, and presto. Net localgroup Administrators (username) /add To fix the broken account, using the info I just got from the previous commands, I typed Net localgroup produced a list of local group policies on the machine. Net user (username) listed the account has having no 'Groups' Net user listed the account as still being on the system
I opened a command prompt (start > run > cmd) and typed the following commands: You cannot modify the account from the User Accounts panel, and the account is missing from the login screen. Now, I can't access the user account, and, for all intents and purposes, Windows XP thinks that the account is missing. I did a bit of research, and read a solution suggesting to use "control userpassword2", which, in my personal experience, broke the user account on XP Home. I used to access program files from my lan at home, before SP2 came out, so I'm not sure when "Program Files" became a restricted directory. Recently I was asked to find a way to restore access to "Program Files" from a network share for a customer of mine. Accessing "Program Files" from a LAN / fixing "missing" User accounts
