back up problems on vista over a network
Hope someone can help...I want to back up to another PCvia a network and vista keeps asking for a password. Nothing is password protected and both computers can share files with each other - they are both set up as co-creators. Both computers are using Vista...anyone got anysolutions?
Thanks

Hello Allan,
If you are using the file backupapplication in Windows Vistathen you are required to use a username and password even though you already have access to the share.
