  1. connect not working on win 10 laptop


    I did everything in this link

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/apps_windows_10-winapps/connect-app-not-working-in-windows-10-laptop/19c0fd11-c012-40f4-aad8-8434dceaabc2

    and it just gives a loading icon for 22 seconds and then just returns to the blue screen waiting for a phone to connect.

    Win 10 Network Printer Connection Problem

    I have tried, when using the wifi from a Win 7 computer to connect to the printer connected to it. Others can connect.

    I did do the three steps outlined:

    • Open File Explorer. Pick the "Network" icon from the left pane (navigation pane) of the file explorer UI.
    • If sharing is turned off you will see a pale yellow line towards the top of the window that states "Network Discovery is turned off. Network computers and devices are not visible. Click to change...".
    • Click this bar and select "Turn on network discovery and file sharing"

    None of the suggestion worked.

    I did notice that the PC I'm connecting to is 'Private' while I am listed as 'Public'.

    • Can this be causing the problem?
    • Are there other suggestions?

    I need to be connected to use the other printer so work flow can not be disrupted and someone else needs to print the file for me.

    I will be with this group again on Monday.

    Thank you.

    Cannot connect from a Networked Win 7 PC to a Win 10 Laptop

    I am assuming that this is a Win 10 problem.

    I have 2 networked Laptops, one is a Win 10, one a Win 7, and a networked Win 7 PC.
    I am unable to connect from Win 7 Desktop to a Windows 10 Laptop but I can go the other way.

    Status:
    Win 7 Laptop to Win 10 Laptop is NO GO.
    Win 10 Laptop to Win 7 Laptop is OK.
    Win 10 Laptop to Win 7 Desktop is OK.
    Win 7 Desktop to Win 10 Laptop is NO GO.

    I do not know whether it is a Win 10 Laptop or a Win 7 Desktop problem. All use the same Homegroup. I am the only user; there are no other accounts on any of the machines.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
