If one doesn't fix the problem, go on to the next one: 1. Someone might have hidden My Network Places using Tweak UI. Go to Control Panel. If Tweak UI is present, double click it. On the Desktop tab, put a check mark in the Network Neighborhood or My Network Places box, click Apply and OK. 2. Go to Control Panel | Network. Remove Client for Microsoft Networks if it's present. Then add Client for Microsoft Networks. Reboot. 3. There could be a system policy hiding My Network Places. Run the registry editor, open this key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer Delete the value named "NoNetHood". Reboot. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
