How can i get access to unshared folder

Question

I have an unshared folder on server and i want to access to it from clients by c# code.Is there any way to do this? If yes how?

please help thanks in advance

Answer 1

If it's not shared, then you can't. - the server owner / admin chose (implicitly or explicitly) to not allow clients from other machines to access it. You'll need to contact the server owner to get the folder you need shared (possibly with some ACLs to limit who can access it).

Answer 2

If you are a admin (or domain admin) then you can use the implicitly shared C$.

If the file is at 'c:\\foo\\bar.html' on server named myserver, then try this:

   \\myserver\c$\foo\bar.html

Note that this only works when you are an administrator of the server.
