give other computer admin on network


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

hey im trying to do something that should be simple but having trouble and while researching im getting stuck

both running win7 64 bit

both on the same home group and workgroup

both computers have the same username and password

i have my htpc and would like to give main computer admin rights so i can move and delete files etc on the shared folders but i cant seem to set it up

i can remote desktop in and do it but then i cant be used while im using it

looking through all the stuff i have googled it keeps talking about group policies etc but when i go there i can only get the location of the htpc not the main pc

Add the user from one PC to a user group on the other PC. As an example.

On the HTPC, go into User Groups, add user. Set the user to Computer1\accountname, where Computer1 is the name of the computer you want to grant access to.
