Windows 10: Accessing other Windows 10 computers across a network

I have several Windows 10 Pro desktop computers which are used for image, video and sound editing and often need to move files between computers to access different programs. On all these computers I use my Microsoft account with an identical PIN to go login. When I try accessing one of these computers from another on the network I can see the shared folders but when I attempt to access the folder it asks for the user account login and password. When my MS account login details and Account password are added they are not accepted.


If I was to set up local accounts on each of the computers I would still not be able to access the MS Account.


At present my only option is to transfer files via a OpenMediaVault server which can be access from all Win 10 boxes or alternatively use a external disk drive or USB stick which is messy.


Please provide a sensible solution ASAP.

One computer cannot access other network computers.


So I've tried every troubleshooting step I know:

• Double checked that Net Bios was enabled
• Ran a bunch of network commands:
  • flushed DNS
  • registered dns
  • pinged and located the named computers successfully
• Reset my router to factory settings

Nothing works when I try to access via explorer. I'm still baffled by the fact that every other computer can access each other AND access this computer. It's just the outgoing connection from this machine that doesn't work.

Any thoughts?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

windows 10 loosing local network access

Hi,

Well, frequently, I'm unable to access folders on my laptop (or desktop from laptop).
Then I run network troubleshooting and windows says me the same thing again: one or more network protocols are not installed and necessary for connectivity. Then I accept the correction and I can access my network until the next time it will fail and will say me the same thing. One day, perhaps 3 if I am lucky.
IT'S MASSIVELY BORING !! *Smile

Any clue ?
