Provide credentials of the user that has access to the network share on the Agent machine

Symptoms

  1. You start extracting attachments in SharePoint Content Migration Package format to the local folder;

Cause

When you extract data in SharePoint Content Migration Package format, the Agent extracts it to a temporary folder local to the Agent machine. To get the data back to the target folder on the Console machine, the Console needs to share it for full access for the Agent, so it requests for the local administrator credentials to create that network share.

Solution

Provide credentials of the Console machine local administrator.
