Windows 10: Unable to set up a Peer to Peer network for a local area network

I have been trying to set up a P2P network for a local area network so that files can be shared internally through Ethernet connections. When I completed the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I lost all of my network settings.


Please help. I cannot scan or share files. This is hurting my business.

Also look at the help pages for the golf game and see which ports it needs opened. Is your network connection listed as Private? That probably needs to be checked as well:

 

Windows 10 Peer to Peer Network

• No changes were made, it is a brand new machine.
• None - asked the question here.
• AS I stated above, I keep getting the error The user name or password is incorrect

Is there any tutorials on how to set up a peer to peer network via a CAT5 cable so that I might see where I went awry?
