What kind of problem occurs?
Always, when a program is being started from a network path, a warning is shown by Windows. Please confirm that you want to run it.

This can have several reasons:
| 1. | The other PC and this one are not connected in a network.
A synchronization with network is not possible.
Recommended Action: You can only synchronize with an USB storage device and move this device to the other PC after the sync.
|
| 2. | You firewall(s) prevents access to shared folders or puts PC in a "stealth" mode.
Recommended Action 1: Deactivate your firewall(s) temporarily and / or allow access to shares.
Recommended Action 2: Please check if the "File- and printer sharing" is enabled on your PC. You can find this option in the network settings on in the properties of your network card (both in the Windows Control panel).
Recommended Action 3: You can also work without the assistant. Go to the other PC, click with the right mouse button on the desired folder and choose "Sharing". Please make sure, that write access is activated, too. Now you can simply go back one step in the assistant on this PC, choose "Yes" and select the folder from the network neighborhood.
