Windows 10: Cannot See All Computers / Servers in Our Workgroup

I am constantly bothered because some days I can see all of the computers in our workgroup, then other days, I only see some of them.


It makes no sense to me. I do not make any changes to my system.

• I am running Windows 10 Professional.
• Network Discovery is turned on both in private and public.
• File and Printer sharing is turned on both in private and public.

Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening and/or what I can do to see all of the computers in the workgroup?


Thanks!!!

Homegroup For Minecraft Servers Or What?

It looks as if the existing minecraft server will use the new system without modification - It needs to be able to access the computers on the network in a two way link, which is the standard for Workgroup and Homegroup

There is a complete step by step available, if you have any issues ...

It's not something I have any direct experience with but a quick read suggests to me that you will not need to do Much if any reconfiguration of the existing server
