There are few options. One is e.g. if I am logged on to the PC B with
Administrator account and I am trying to access PC A over network. When I
try to access it, computer A demands username and password. My computer B
sends it as "Administrator" and password of "PasswordB". On computer A there
is "Administrator" account but it has password of "PasswordA" so in this
case I get Access Denied since the password doesn't match...

You can always get access (if you have valid account) by mapping drives.
E.g. if you would like to map network drive using logon script you would
write down:

net use w: \\computera\share /user:administrator passworda
