Just had the same or similar problem, the main problem seems to have been needing an error check on the drive where the shares are, so right click drive and schedule an error check, restart, you may see many repairs happen. When back in windows, right click the shared folder, click security tab, edit, add, type "everyone" in the space. ok, full permission, "replce owner on subcontainers and objects" for everyone, ok, right click the shared folder again, sharing tab, advanced sharing, tick share this folder, with everyone with full permission. Hope this helps.
