This is Foxy, and it's my 6th and last email account. I going to try to keep my login open. I've posted some questions on other forums without any results, but I always knew the folks at VDR are the best-informed.

I have 2 Win7 Ult computers, the HP I've been using a while, and the Gateway I set up with the same OS a few weeks ago. I'll refer to their names that way.

I set up a homegroup on a network last week. I'm still not sure of the difference. On each machine, Data is on the D partition(drive.)
I've marked these items as "shared" on both comps:

Appdata (because all my profiles are in Roaming)
D drive --all my other data is on D

I generally use one machine, and assign the other as backup, i.e.

-the backup of data, there's an external drive with an image
-I use one if the main one is wonky, until it's fixed
-testing new programs or new versions

Oddly, I have no problem accessing Appdata, but I "don't have permission" to access the D drives from the opposite machine. I had to copy all my data onto flash drives from the HP to the Gateway just to set it up.

I think this involves the group permissions,where you say "Admins" or "everybody," but I don't know how to access that feature
