Using Basic Authentication with Windows 7 and Windows Vista WebDAV Client
by default you cannot use WEBDAV folder in windows 7 or Windows Vista which are not using SSL, you might get the following error “The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another” or “Invalid folder”
Luckily this behavior can be changed by editing HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters\BasicAuthLevel and changing its value to 2
values are:
0 - Basic authentication disabled
1 - Basic authentication enabled for SSL shares only
2 or greater - Basic authentication enabled for SSL shares and for non-SSL shares
you can just run this reg file for easier approach
