Folder into which I am attempting to write in laptop is set up with

Error message when attempting to write to laptop is "Cannot copy

When attempting to rename a file in the target directory, I get
"Cannot rename filename: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not
full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use."
It's almost as if the check box to allow modification of files in that
directory did not "take".
Any ideas?
Alexy,
Does "Guest is "on"" mean activated for network access?

Following these instructions on both computers did not make a

laptop's registry. The other two mentioned in this article indicate
that they would make the network resource not show, which is not my
problem--I just can't write to it.
What firewalls are you using on each computer?Widows firewall on both computers, with exceptions allowed for file

and printer sharing (both computers), and for windows explorer(desktop
only). AVG antivirus on both. Laptop used to have Avast!, but that was
deactivated and uninstalled. No firewall element in either to my
knowledge.
OK, Alex,
You have Simple File Sharing on. Maybe you need to check the permissions
anyway. SFS gives you a different GUI. The same permission granularity, under
NTFS, still applies.
