    Network sharing not working after installing Cumulative updates on Windows 10 1809


    This is more of a rant than anything else, but if anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears. Unless & until MS fixes whatever it is in the Cumulative Updates that breaks permissions, I'd love a simple guaranteed way to quickly resolve this on my end.


    In the name of all that's holy, why on earth does every Cumulative Update (64-bit Win 10 Pro 1809) break network sharing?!?!?! Homegroups was removed over a year ago and I successfully got past that Pauli G's excellent instructions.


    I can't say it's happened with every Cumulative Update since then but it has with many of them. The cumulative update hits one computer & breaks sharing with the others. And so forth with each computer as the update hits. It's beyond infuriating & I haven't found a sure fire simple way to fix the broken sharing without a bazillion attempts (un-sharing everything, resharing again, nope, wash, rinse repeat until some magical combo happens) & a bazillion restarts, which of course results in a lot of lost productivity.


    To be clear, what happens is the other computers remain accessible, and files & folders can be opened from other computers. However, attempting to save the file back to its original network location, or attempting to move files from one computer to another fails.


    Here's a screenshot:

    Sorry I couldn't resize.


    As you can see, the "More details" is greyed out. So helpful!


    Nothing changed other than the Cumulative updates - what gives?!?! Why does this keep happening over & over & over again with the Cumulative Updates, which happen at least monthly?!


    TIA is anyone is listening,

    windows 10 worth the upgrade?

    Cumulative update for W10: September 8, 2015


    This is the biggest update W10 ever had. Lol look at the file list.
    This is pretty good for those who installed Windows 10 today. Just one update that has everything, no need to install previous updates.
