    Unable to find Windows 10 computer on the Network


    Hello

    I have several computers, some with windows 10 and some with windows 7.
    I recently installed a windows 10 computer and I having difficulties with the network, namely getting other windows 10 to discover it on the network.
    When I list the network on windows explorer from windows 7 I can see the computer, but when I list from a windows 10 I don't see it.
    When I enter the name manually on both versions of windows I can access the shared files with no problems

    Here's what I've done

    smb 1 off
    ipv6 deactivated
    Services:
    Function Discovery Provider Host (FDPHost)
    Function Discovery Resource Publication (FDResPub)
    Network Connections
    Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRPSvc) ?
    Peer Networking Grouping (P2PSvc)
    Peer Networking Identity Manager (P2PIMSvc)

    network discovery - x (couldn't find it)


    The firewall is configured to trust my computers, mas even so I shut it down for the test.
    Snoozed the firewall too for the test

    Am I missing something?


    Thank you in advance

    Unable to browse network computers.

    We suggest creating a new administrator user account by following the steps
    here
    . Make sure to use the same network settings that you used for your other computers, then check if you can connect to the home network. Since you also mentioned that Windows 10 was freshly installed on this particular computer, have you already downloaded
    the latest updates? The latest build for Version 1607 is 14393.1715, and 15063.608 for Version 1703. You can check the build version of your computer by following these steps:

    • Click Start.
    • Type winver and press Enter.

    If you don't have the latest updates, you can follow these steps to install them:

    • Click Start.
    • Go to Settings.
    • Click Update & security.
    • Click Check for updates.

    If that doesn't work, we'd like screenshots of the network and file sharing settings of the computer that doesn't work, and the settings of one of your other computers that can connect and share files properly on the home network.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
