Troubleshooting “network path not found” error

[GarySober]

We are having LAN connections in our office. As LAN connection provides us with efficient features such as file sharing, internet browsing etc. while sharing the files across the LAN I am facing problem and getting error code 53 displayed on the screen. When I searched for 53 error code on the internet I found that error code 53 resembles “network path not found” error. I want some steps so that I can troubleshoot this error and share the files across the network carefully.

When you are getting error code 53 then you should ensure that file sharing across the network you want to share is enabled. Also you should ensure that file sharing ports must be opened across the network. If the ports are not opened then you should open it and then try to share the files. If the file sharing is enabled and if the ports are opened then you can share the files easily and the “network path not found” error message will be resolved.

When you are sharing the files across the network then you may get the “network path not found” error message because of the firewall system running on your application. You should ensure and disable the firewall software on your system. If the firewall is enabled then it may block the traffic to the network which causes this error message to get generated.
