The administrator credentials are removed. These credentials are required for remote administration of the print drivers. This value enables the remote administration of the print drivers on a server within a workgroup. Check whether the problem is fixed. If it's fixed, you're finished with this article. If it isn't fixed, you can contact support. When the destination Windows Vista-based computer and the computer from which you want to access the administrative share are on the same domain, you can access the share by using domain administrator credentials.
You can't access this administrative share if the destination Windows Vista-based computer is joined to a domain and you try to connect to it by using a computer that is joined to a workgroup. This is true even if you supply correct domain administrator credentials for the domain where the destination computer is located.

Yes, i can RDP to it. Any other ideas? Hi tumarin, Please do a test, if you create a general share folder not the admin share. And please also check if there's more information in the event viewer. No Problem Atoll September 9, pm. Unless your in a corporate shop on a domains, almost all users of Windows 7 are running there local machine with Administrator accounts.
By default Microsoft restricted access to the admin share. The regkey is what unlocks the functionality. Samir April 14, pm.
Yeah, exactly. This is true for Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8. You MUST modify the registry, as given in instructions above. Samir March 5, pm. Actually, I have just realized that the legacy "Administrator" account needs to be enabled if one wishes to skip step 5 and not make the registry edit in order to enable remote access of the admin shares in a local work group environment. I am running a freshly installed Windows 10 TH2 right now, and after I enabled the old legacy Administrator account I was able to access the admin shares remotely, without having to make the registry change.
If your username is Bob and you are part of the admin group, and you create a new admin user Alice, you will still not be able to use that account to access the admin shares remotely. In that case, you MUST make the registry change as described in step five above. Otherwise you will have to enable the legacy Administrator account. Make sure local and remote PC are joined in the same work group.
Reboot booth PCs after making any changes. Enable file and printer sharing in Windows Firewall settings. Run lusrmgr. Set a password for Administrator. You can now remotely access any admin share on the local PC. You don't need to sign out, and then sign in as Administrator. You can remain signed in as Bob.
Just remember to NOT use Bob's credentials for remote share access. Instead, you will use Administrator's credentials you just created.
