Windows 10: Unable to get computers to see each other in lan

Hello I have 3 computers in the office each with different version of windows, the first and what I consider main have windows 10 home edition, the second one have windows 10 pro and the last one is using windows XP (because it is an old netbook that operate a cutter that isn't working with windows 10) and only the main PC can see the other 2 in the network.


All of them are connected on a switch alongside a printer and the modem/router and all of them get internet from the modem and can see and print on the printer.


I had the windows 10 home and the XP, PCs in a homegroup before and after the update that removed homegroups I enabled something that I don't recall in windows components so the windows 10 can see the XP computer.


I have shared in every of the computers the folders that I want to have shared in the LAN, yet only the main PC can see the other 2 devices. The other 2 can't see the main, neither each other.


I have them all in the same workgroup with specific names. I don't know what I do wrong, any idea?


(I have to notice that the main can do remote desktop connections to the others with no problem)

Good LAN party games?

Most of my suggestions have already been listed.

However, I found Swat4 to actually be a pretty fun LAN game, especially at smaller LAN parties.

I suggest you check if you are able to boot into Windows Recovery Environment using installation media. Follow the steps provided below and check.

• • Insert the installation USB and boot Windows 10 from it.
  • In the ‘Windows setup’ page select the ‘language to install’, ‘Time and currency format’ and the ‘keyboard or input method’ and click on ‘next’.

Check if you are able to boot to this window. If you are unable to boot to this window, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer and check.
