  1. Unable to view shared files on network


    I have a Lenovo PC with pre-installed Windows 10 OS. Today morning onwards the network is not getting accessible with this system. I can access other systems shared folders from this PC but can't access the shared folders of this Lenovo PC. Also internet is working fine in the system. While diagnose the issue, its showing a message "The remote device or resource won't accept the connection Detected". I have tried to resolve the issue by

    * Enabled insecure login in Lanman workstation option of Group policy

    * Disabled Antivirus and Firewall

    * All the sharing options are enabled in Sharing and settings option etc.

    Please give a solution for rectify the issue
