Windows 10: Query related to SMB1.0

I'm responsible for about 25 computers running different versions of Windows. Some of them see the entire network, but several don't. I just found out that if I enable SMB1 on my computer the problem goes away.

I'm running Windows 10 version 1903. Other computers may not be running this version, but almost all are on Windows 10. I need a solution that will get them all to view the entire network if necessary.

SMB1 Error

Hi Greg,

Thank you so much for your advice. I enabled SMB1 Client by following the steps in one of the links that you supplied.

How to fix "You can't connect to the file share because it's not secure" message in Windows 10 while mapping network share?

Thank you once again.

 

SMB1 disabled, SMB2 enabled; Can no longer access network shares


If you're system is up to date, there's no need to be concerned about Wannacry - as such there's no problem using SMB1 (despite all the comments about SMB1)

I had the same problem - no shares visible on File Explorer - researched the issues related to disabling SMB1 - and quite frankly, it's only SMB1 on XP machines that will be (would have been before MS released a patch for XP) susceptible to a Wannacry attach. I suggest you reinstate SMB1 and enjoy accessing your network shares as before
