I'm having this issue with my shared folder that it keeps asking for credentials, where I have already disabled it. The folder I want to access its located in one VM that I have locally here (Hyper-V). I follow all the instructions to able the share folder, and also for disabling the credentials, but none of them worked.

To enable the shared folder, I followed this steps below:

https://computerinfobits.com/how-to-enable-file-sharing/

Most of the pages I visited, they have the same steps. I believe I did it correct because it asks for passowrd. Also, on the step 5 of this guide, it is showing how to disable the crendentials, which is the same steps I found in the most of the web sites I had a look, but still got that annoying screen.

Is there anything else that can be done? Am I missing something?

Also, have checked this post, and it didn't work.

Enter Network Credentials

  • Ugh. Been a while since I’ve operated anything like this but it is certainly more complicated than the article you linked. You CANNOT access file shares without a password on windows. That is called anonymous access, it’s a huge security risk and it has to be allowed in the registry or group policy. Something else that might work is using the same username and password on both computers. Why not simply type in the password and use the option to save it for later? – Appleoddity Sep 20 '22 at 04:01
