The Vista laptop doesn't appear to have a Credential Manager. The Win 7 laptop does but none of the entries seem too relevant, though there is a Generic Credential called virtualapp/didlogical. However, creating a new user on the Win7 machine, with the same username and password as the one...

Sorry, I had a senior moment... What I meant to say was that I tried \\192.168.1.60\CompData and got the Access Denied error.

I have tried to find an answer to my file access problem but they all seem to refer to access issues on a single Windows 7 PC. My problem is different as I am trying to copy files from my old Win XP Pro PC to my new Win 7 PC, via my home network. Out of about 60,000 files only 42 are causing...
