WinCE access shared folder on Win10 Pro

Question

_{Thursday, August 23, 2018 4:20 AM}

Hi,

I was trying to run an application on my WinCE6.0 device to write some data to a shared folder on a PC with Win10 Pro via ethernet.

I have successfully mapped this shared FOLDER of Win10 PC to my WinCE device using 'net use SyncFolder \ServerName\SharedFolderName'.

I can see the mapped item in 'Network' on WinCE device. However, the icon of this item is not a folder and when I double click this item I cannot open it. It seems like this item is not recognized by WinCE as a folder and therefore I cannot write any file to it.

Please let me know how I can fix this issue. Your help is much appreciated.

You probably don't have enough rights on the share to allow R/W access to the folder. 

Good luck,
