    Problem with Windows 7

    Hi, after many months of excellent playback through my Cambridge streamer from Asset located on the PC I find I have a sudden problem. When first switching on the streamer and PC, then going to my Ipad or Iphone to control via CA Connect I find the CA app cannot see Asset unless I go into Windows 7 and change the file sharing to Homegroup whereupon all is as it should be. This was not necessary until recently and now has to be done every time I switch on the computer. The W7 "File Share With" command always shows a lock on "Nobody" irrespective of wether you previously altered it at the last session, although this is apparently a Windows design flaw. Though I do not think Asset is at fault here I wonder do you have an idea what has changed?

    UPnP does not use home sharing. Try rebooting your router (internet box.

      No but the My Music Folder does.

        If asset is installed on that PC, it should be reading 'my music' folder locally with a drive letter, not a network sharing path. Local drive access does not need home sharing.
