anonymous logon
I'd like to enable anonymous read/write access to a particular network share I have. The network share is on a Windows 7 x64 Ultimate computer. Computers that will be accessing and writing to the share will also be running Windows 7 Ultimate (both the x86 and the x64 versions). These computers all have the same user-name, and password, and are all hardwared to the network. So far, I have done the following: gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options: in "Network access: Shares that can be accessed anonymously", I typed in the share name "Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares", and made sure that it was disabled. I also added anonymous logon read/write permissions to the share. I when I tried to write to the share, I got the error Code: 2147024891, which when I looked it up, translated to “general access denied”.

You may need to specially give the Guest account full control permission for the shared folders.Arthur Xie - MSFT

What to do is, 1) enable the guest account, 2) remove guest from "Deny access to this computer from the network, 3) set Everyone to have access to share and file security permissions.
