  2. Lost the ability to search ffrom start menu, and lost Cortana icon

    I have lost the ability to search from the start menu, and also Cortana has vanished, which means I can't search from her. This makes it very difficult to search, other than via Bing.

    I have lost my wifi ability.

    My device manager has no network adapter listed.

    It seems I am not alone in this predicament (thanks Windows 10!).

    Any suggestions gratefully received

    Lost ability to access Win10 from WinXP machine

    Hi,

    This is a lab I constructed since following this thread.

    Setup:

    Virtual Box
    Windows 10 fresh install, latest ISO fully patched.
    Windows XP Latest Version As patched as it need.

    Setup:
    Both Virtual machines virtual adapters Bridged to my Local Network
    Both NetBios forced Enabled
    Both in the same Workgroup
    Both firewalls located in Private network

    Enabled SMB1 on W10 Host

    Created user named "monkey" with the password "banana" on both machines
    Created a Share named !TEMP! on both machines, created a cookie File in each folder.
    Give full control access to everyone and "monkey" on both shares.


    From there I was unable to access the shared folder Without authentication period.
    Automatic authentication did not work and using "Everyone full access" did not change anything.
    I had to specifically log on the machine to gain any access.

    CMD output:

    If you want, you can do a step by step troubleshooting of your problem.
    From the problematic machine.

    Try to view if your Machine appears on the Network List:
    Code:
    If Your Machine appears on the list, try to view it:
    Code:
    The available shares will be listed there.
    If it does not work you can use:
    Code:
    To verify if authentication is working properly, if it succeed, you can carry on... But nothing will be permanently saved.

    Then Try to List the content of one of the directories:
    Code:
    This should list the content of the directory,

    If all this works Try to map a drive on the share:
    Code:
    In my setup both windows are at the default initial configuration, no tweaks, and wont accept any of these commands without prior authentication.
