    Cannot access Network drive by IP


    As the title, my Windows 10 Enterprise PC cannot access to my company's network storage at \\10.63.0.250. In the previous edition like windows 7 or 8, I can access easily by enter \\10.63.0.250 in the Address box in File Explorer or in Run windows (Window button + R). However, I have got trouble since I upgraded to Window 10. The notification is "The network path was not found", although I can ping to this and another PC can access the network storage in File Explorer.
    Help me, please!
    Thanks a lot

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Cannot discover an external hdd connected to my Router (Asus RT-N18U)

    I've a hdd setup with my router Asus RT-N18U and uses samba to share the drive.

    The drive is in the same workgroup as my laptop. Earlier my laptop used to connect to this drive no problem.

    But now, possibly after an update, the laptop can no longer find this network share. It used to show up as a network place.

    At present it is not accessed with \\ShareName or \\ip-address.

    I can however access this drive from android phone and blackberry.

    How can I fix this ?

    *Edit*

    It seems I cannot access other pc-s in the network aswell.

    I just tried to access my desktop from this laptop and I get this same error.

  3. KB3185614 Not allowing Network Shared Drive Access

    Hi Nivay,

    To address your concern, we would like you to check the following:

    • After updating, check your Network profile under Network and Sharing Center, make sure that it is set to Private and not Public.
    • If you are using a third party antivirus software, make sure that the
      Network drive
      is set to Trusted.
    • Ping the network drive and check if you're getting a reply.
    • Access the network drive through it's IP address via run field and not through the existing shortcut, then check if it is accessible.
    • If the network drive is accessible via IP address, we would suggest you to re-map the network drive and delete the previous one that has the red X mark.

    Thank you.

    Cannot access Network drive by IP

    First make sure the Windows 10 PC is on the same workgroup as the others. Then make sure the network is set to home or work. Public blocks any local connections. Work is OK, but I would use Home for better access to shared resources. Then try to go directly to the shared resource, that is L: \\10.63.0.250\sharedfolder instead of just L: \\10.63.0.250

    Your IP is 10.63.12.59, the NAS is 10.63.0.250 so you are on different networks.
    Can you ping 10.63.0.250? I see you can do this.

    Could this need an exception in the Windows Firewall or are you using some other firewall? What anti-virus are you using?

    Cannot access Network drive by IP

    Yeah, my computer is in a different VLAN with the 10.63.0.250, but we are in the same network. As I mentioned, with the previous Windows like Win7 or Win8.1, I can access easily, but this problem has happened since I upgraded to Windows 10.
    About the Firewall and anti-virus, I'm using Bitdefender Total Security 2016 and the Window Firewall is disabled totally.
    I don't want to downgrade my Windows, *cry Please, help me!
    Thank you so much!

    As a test, disable Bitdefender and see what happens.

    Really do not see what is so funny. If this is a employer system. You need to be talking to your IT people about the issue. There may be a reason why you are locked out of that VLAN.
