I started this thread a couple of weeks ago and am relaunching it in hopes of getting someone from Microsoft to take this a little more seriously. I can't edit my xxxxx.html files which reside on Win2003 file server. I use Dreamweaver. I've tried also with notepad, et al and same problem. I never had a problem with XP but now I have this major, major problem. I get this error: A sharing violation occurred while accessing E:\ccc\ddd\M564D.tmp. To summarize. - I've turned off UAC. - removed anti-virus - turned off windows defender, firewall and indexing - checked permissions - this happens using a plain text editor as well Now I've had this problem confirmed by a friend who can't edit .html or .htm files over the network and he is using Samba 3.x on a Centos fileserver. This isn't a windows 2003 error then. It's a Windows 7 problem! Additionally, if he opens the file using the UNC path (i.e. \\server\share\foo.html ) then he can edit the file. He says the error only occurs if the file is opened via Windows Explorer. I've had to switch back to XP and I'm pretty miffed that I've had to endure these issues. I was further angered when Microsoft wanted to charge me $250 to fix their problem. Can anyone from Microsoft please take a serious look at this and provide a solution??? thx G

Well, if I just focus on that one, it falls way down the list and gets ignored and I would like someone from Microsoft to take a real look at this and fix their problem!! thx Glenn
