MM service: Error 5, access denied
Posted: Fri Mar 24, 2017 11:58 am
Media Sharing Service will not work on my PC: win10-x64, MM 4.1.15.1828. It has never worked. It seems installed but is not working.
When MM is started syncing/sharing to MMA is no problem.
When i try to install the service by the button 'Install service' an error pops up: [SC] StartService: OpenSevice ERROR 5: Access denied.
I klick "OK" on this error message and the label of the service button changes - despite of the error - to "uninstall service".
No i klick on the button "uninstall service" and the button label changes to "install service".
Now, the second time, i klick on the button "install service" and only now i get the the confirm window: Service successfully installed.
And the service button label changes again to "uninstall service".
It looks now as though the service is installed. But it is not working: i do not see the media server in MMA neither by upnp nor by sync.
Sync/upnp work only with MM started. Rebooting or restarting/closing MM does not solve the issue.
What could i try to do to get it working?
