Error when adding shared folder
Posted: 17. Dec 2012, 03:18
When adding a shared folder, simply by pasting its absolute path into the "Folder Path" input box, it throws this error when OKing the Add Share and Settings windows:
When I select "other" and browse to the very same directory, the same path is put into the input box, and this time it works fine.
So what's the difference between browsing to a directory and letting VB fill out the absolute path, and pasting it in yourself? Anyway, the latter one doesn't work.
Code: Select all
