PLEASE HELP

I use symSMB to access shared folders on my PC and Nokia phone. It was all working fine till yesterday. But now i can not access the shared folder on my phone from windows 7 (SP1) PC. I have also a windows XP VMware virtual machine. Shared folders on XP is also inaccessible from WIN 7 now. But i can access shared folders on Windows 7 from my phone and XP. The error code and message is '0x80070035 network path not found'.

My win 7 is running a homegroup. Printer & File sharing, Network discovery etc are ON. Printer & File sharing is added in exception list of windows firewall.

I guess, the problem started after a windows update. My antivirus is NOD32.

What could be the problem? Is it something wrong with the router. I rebooted the router, reinstalled symSMB still problem not solved.

Please someone help me to solve this mystery.

Are you using NOD32 antivirus, or the Security suite?

Disable firewall and try to connect to the device directly through the IP address instead of the device name.

I am using NOD32 Antivirus.

Pinging to IP address and host name works. But \\ipaddress shows error 0x80070035

I had the same problem and then figured out that there were 5 security updates for Windows 7 on Jun 16. These updates didn't let me connect to my Nokia Phne through SymSMB application.

Try to uninstall those applications and the problem will be solved.


Bye!

Thanks Leo. It worked.

Lesson learned - Do not update your windows unless it is a service pack.

I have the same problem but now its to late to restore the system in order to uninstall those updates D: Is there a way to uninstall them without using "restore system" ? That's an awesome app that i dont want to miss. Hate u updates >< !

There are ten update packages of 6/16:

Microsoft Silverlight (KB2512827)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538242)
Windows 7 (KB2476490)
Windows 7 (KB2503665)
Windows 7 (KB2536275)
Windows 7 (KB2536276)
Windows 7 (KB2544893)
Windows 7 (KB890830)
Windows 7 IE9 (KB2530548)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243)

Remove updates from KB2476490 to KB2544893 SymSMB will work again

@theapu, thank you very much. You helped a lot. I solved the annoying problem with your help. I removed the updates you mentioned above one by one and I found out that the exact reason of the error 0x80070035 under windows 7 is the update KB2536276. After uninstalling KB2536276, I can access my phone through SymSMB.
