I have Windows 8.1 64-bit OS running on 64-bit architecture. I am installing a fresh copy of Oracle 12C, means I haven\'t installed any version before on my system.
This problem arises due to the administrative share.
Here is the solution :
Set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System DWORD
value: LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy
to 1
Go to this link: http://www.snehashish.com/install-oracle-database-12c-software/ Follow 8th point.
It helped me a lot.
After creating the hidden share (c$) it should look like this (you can ignore the description tab)
And let me know if it worked or not.
