I'm having one problem since one week ago: I receive a message that I don't have the permission to open projects because I don't have the rights to do it. The computer was working fine, with my only user ("administrator"). Then, I've created one new user ("siemens") and, after that, I can't open any project on this machine, even with the old and good "administrator". [:cry:] Does someone have some information about it? Really important: I'm using WinCC 6.0 SP3 Asia. Attachment Pictures.zip (67 Downloads)

Three things to check are: Ensure that your windows users - Administrator and Siemens - have passwords and are not using blank passwords. The SIMATIC Shell folder in Windows Explorer is correctly displaying your WinCC project shares. If this folder is empty I have found WinCC does not always operate correctly. Browse to your computer through Network Neighbourhood and try to connect to the project share WinCC60_Project_<your project name>. This will determine if your Windows user has the relevant permissions for accessing the project folder Regards, Salma

The not so bright side is that I've just been informed that some one reinstalled the XP, so the problem is solved. Anyway, I'll try to create the problem again and, then, try some of your advices. Thank you again, Paulo
