    NAS automatically connects on Windows Laptop but not Windows PC


    I set up a network storage thing for my computer so I can share stuff between my pc and my laptop. I don't have static IP so the NAS device's IP will change sometimes. My laptop copes with this fine but my computer does not.I noticed on my laptop the NAS is called its name ¥¥NAS not its name but its formatted that way but on my PC it's just the IP address, this is goes for all of it: it's called sambashare [IPADDRESS] on my pc but on my laptop its sambashare ¥¥NAS}. Is there a way to make these align so I don't have to keep checkinng the new IP?Also its not visible on the network sharing

    :)
