Windows 10: Win 10 to Win XP Networking Issue

I have 3 computers.

Computer #1 - WIN 10 PRO X64 - Version 1803 - Desktop

Computer #2 - WIN 10 PRO X64 - Version 1809 - Laptop

Computer #3 - WIN XP - Laptop



The problem I am having is as follows.

Computer #1 can see all 3 Computers on the network and connect to them.

Computer #2 can only see Computer #1 and connect to it. Can’t see Computer #3

Computer #3 can only see Computer #1 and connect to it.



I activated the following in Computer #2 to match what I have in Computer #1.



SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support

SMB 1.0/CIFS Client

SMB 1.0/CIFS Server



This made no difference. I need all 3 to connect to each other.



Any help would be appreciated.



Thanks.

Win 7 and Win 10 on network

I have home network with separate modem, router, and WAP's. My Windows 7 computer does NOT list the Windows 10 computers on network computer list but the Windows 10 computers network list DO list the Windows 7 computer.

Turned off firewalls, gave permissions, shared drives. Nothing allows Win 7 computer to access the Win 10 computers.

Any suggestions for a fix?

 

Win 7 and Win 10 on network

Thank you. Troubleshooter did not work. I ran all the listed commands in order and that also did not work.

None of the Windows 10 computers on my home network are on the network list of the Win 7 computer but the Lan connected windows 10 computer does show up on the Windows 7 computer network map.

Any other fixes suggestions would be appreciated?

 

Sharing a WIN 10 Printer to an Win XP on the network

When I first got my three WIN 10 machines, I connected them to my existing MSHome network which had three XP machines.

At that time, I shared the WIN 10's and my backup server is on one of the XP machines.

After a while of WIN 10 updates and MS discontinuing support of XP, my XP machines could no longer access shared files. I didn't make any changes to any of their sharing capabilities. Then my ability to PRINT to two printers on my WIN 10 machines stopped
working.

I've looked at websites and forums and it's all GREEK to me. When I set these networks up it was QUITE SIMPLE. Now everybody's solutions are to hack into registries and such, further the instructions shown don't work on XP machines....

SO can somebody walk me (a simpleton) through how to get my printer sharing to work again? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.... SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS!

Why am I still running XP you ask? There are some scanning devices I use regularly that do NOT have software upgrades to WIN 10. These pieces of equipment are not available any longer nor is there a substitute to their function... (Don't bother asking it's
a long story).
