    Cannot see my PC on my network


    I have four Windows 10 PCs and a network attached storage unit. Only one PC can see the other pcs and NAS iin the system. All of the other PCS only can see themselves. One pc was just converted from windows 7 to Windows 10 Pro and a clean install was done to accomplish this.


    All of the units and ping and map to the other units. I have done the following:

    • reset network setting on all pcs
    • Reinstalled Windows and did a repair on all of the other PCs.
    • Checked/Reset services SSDP Discover, UPnP Device Host, DHCP Client, DNS Client, turned on all three SMB options, restarted Function Discovery Provider Host, and Function Discovery Resource Publication. These services are all set to run Automatically or Automatic-triggered
    • Verified that network discovery is on and password sharing is off on all pcs
    • I can ping both pcs and access by IP or by name (\\computer name)
    • Verified all PCs are in the same wrokgroup
    • All PCs are running Windows Defender. Reset that.

    Sometimes if I restart the Function Discovery Resource Publication and Function Discovery Provider Host services, then each PC may see itself. However, they still will not see the others in the workgroup.


    I would appreciate any feedback. Nothing seems to be working.



    This problem did not begin until I changed the Windows 7 PC, which was the master browser, to Windows 10.


    Depending on which PCs boots first, it will become the Master Browser.

    :)

    My PC is not listed in Network


    Hi Eagle51 & thanks for quick response

    I am very grateful for your help

    1 was not enabled. I enabled it and restarted the HT-PC, but now the HT-PC is not visible in Network list on any computer.

    ...then i run 2 and both was true.

    Next step?

  3. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region

    Cannot see my PC on my network

    How to Dump Networking Parameters?


    Had a customer with this problem, they had a brand new Dell Optiplex 3050, with Windows 10 1709, and Realtek Gbit Family of lan adapters (wired connection). After much troubleshooting (many suggestions listed in the course of this thread), it turned out the PC needed a bios update. Among the updates listed on the dell website for bios version 1.52 (I flashed it with the latest 1.92) was "Update RealtekLOM".

    LOM is "lan on motherboard" and the Realtek has flashable firmware.

    One step for others having this issue is to check their computer manufacturer's website for "Lom" firmware updates for the particular network adapter - whether integrated or an add-in.
