Windows 10: Entire Laptop listed as Networked Location

Hi everyone:


It's possible that a long time ago I created this "network" location on my laptop when I was trying to connect my Brother printer. That said, how do I get rid of it or am I supposed to have it? Notice how the users are duplicated? I think it may be causing a problem with Google Back up and Sync.

add a network location windows 10

Hi Erich,

Adding a network place in Windows allows you to access FTP, Windows file shares, and some HTTP servers directly in My Network Places, without having to use an FTP client.
To assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

• Are you getting any error messages when you tried adding a network location?
• Are you trying to add a network location or map a network drive?

Meanwhile, if you're adding a network location, we suggest that you follow these steps below about adding a network location:

• Open This PC in File Explorer, click on the Computer tab, click on the
  Add a network location button in the ribbon.
• Click on Next in the Add Network Location wizard.
• Click on Choose a custom network location, and click on
  Next.
• Type the address of the website, FTP site, or network location you want to add, and click on
  Next.
• If you are allowed to log on anonymously to this network location, click on
  Next.
• Type a name you want for this network location in This PC, and click on
  Next.
• If you are not allowed to log on anonymously to this network location, then uncheck the
  Log on anonymously box, enter the user name for the network location, and click on
  Next.
• Click on Finish.
• If you could not log on anonymously to this network location, you will see a
  Log On As dialog prompting you to enter the user name and password for this network location. Check the
  Save password box if you do not want to be required to type the user name and password every time you access this network location. Click on
  Log On when finished.
• The network location will now open.

If you're mapping a network, we suggest that you follow the steps in this
article on how to map a network drive.
