Hello, I can help you.
1. The \"Try Empty Credentials\" feature is currently always on and can\'t be disabled at the moment. We will change this in an upcoming release. This was actually left over from version 2 because it scanned so much slower and checking empty credentials can take a few seconds. But with 2.5 this shouldn\'t be a problem, but we can get it re-enabled if needed. Is there a reason you don\'t want NEWT to try accessing the machine without credentials first?
2. If you\'re in a domain, you should be able to make yourself part of the \"Domain Admin\" group on the domain controller. If you do this and re-login to the domain, you should have access to all the machines without any credentials.
If you continue to have an issue getting access to the ADMIN$ share, please let us know and we\'ll contact you directly through email since we\'ll need some more information.
