    ALWAYS asks for username and password


    I have installed Windows 11 fresh. I turned on SMB V1 in programs and features and to some degree see shares, but not normally. If I try to access the c$ it prompts me for a username and password. Even if I turn off the firewall and Defender, it will still ask me for a username and firewall. On a client computer on the network if I type \\computername all I get is a username and password prompt. But if I type it this way \\10.0.0.122 by the IP address it shows shares. DNS is working %100, my other workstations Win10 talk to one another just fine. How can a Windows 11 desktop with it's firewa

  2. Why is windows security asking for username and password

    Hi,

    To isolate the issue, please provide the following information:

    • Are you referring to either the Microsoft Security Essentials or the Windows Defender? If not, please specify which Windows security utility is asking for your username and password.
    • Does the issue also occur when you try to connect to other Wi-Fi networks?
    • What username and password is being asked (e.g. Microsoft Account, etc.)? If it's other than your Microsoft Account, please specify which account.
    • What happens when you try to enter your username and password?
    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?

    Regards.
