    Windows 10 Peer to Peer Network


    I am working on a friends network, there are 4 computers on the network, 3 running Windows 10 and one running Windows 7. The main computer (Office) has a HomeGroup setup on it, and the other computers have been joined to that homegroup. "Office" also has a folder shared out, with full control granted for "everyone". However, when you try to browse to that folder from one of the other computers I get an error saying "Path not found" I have re-verified that it's shared correctly, and that I'm browsing to the correct UNC path (ie \\office\foldername) does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking maybe allowed apps list under firewall setting?

    :)

    Windows 10 Pro Peer to Peer Network-Network discovery and File sharing issue

    Sounds like the changes are not being confirmed.

    Try turning off Fast Startup to see if it makes a difference.

    Press Windows key + X

    Click Power options

    Click Additional power settings under Related settings

    Click Choose what the power button does

    Click Change settings that are currently unavailable

    Uncheck 'Turn on fast startup (recommended)

    Click Save changes.

    Click Restart now and see if it works.

    Windows 10 Pro Peer to Peer Network-Network discovery and File sharing issue

    I am trying to setup a Windows 10 Pro Peer to Peer network. I have a Workgroup setup for my small business and have turned on network and file sharing for a private network. Every time I restart the computers, go to File Explorer and click on Network, it
    tells me to "turn on network discovery and file sharing".

    I have gone to Network discovery and saved changes under 'Private'. How do I get this option to save? Do I need to setup a share on my c: drive?

    indecently, the windows 7 PC is not joined to the homegroup, and is the only one that can access that shared folder. I setup the homegroup in an effort to correct that problem.

    When you setup a share and give everyone permission that applies to the share but then NTFS permissions kick in on the folder so you need to check that also has everyone as full rights

    Thanks for the reply. I will check on the folder rights, but I assumed that they were already set sense the windows 7 PC can access that folder.
