Windows 10: Network will not show one PC

Network error

Windows 10 Version 2004

One PC can not be seen on the network.

Net View shows “The network location can not be reached.”

SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support has been added to Windows 10

Anti-Virus program suspended to rule it out.



Now Net View continually responds with error 64 “Network name no longer available.”

Strange names showing in Network Profiles on AVG Firewall

Some strange network names have been showing in my AVG Network Profiles list, that are not listed on the "known network" list on my windows 10 PC:

DIRECT-MHDESKTOP-DVFUTVPmsGH

DIRECT-XgDESKTOP-DVFUTVPmsQJ

DIRECT-LDDESKTOP-DVFUTVPCRTH

(my PC name is DVFUTVP)

Some posts online seem to suggest they are something to do with "Direct Desktop Connection" although I have never used this to connect to anything, only to wifi networks (all others on the list recognised) or bluetooth devices

Does anybody know why these could be showing up / what they are?
