  1. Windows 10 PRO unable to access shared drive on Peer to Peer Network, files on Windows 7 Home


    So I have all my files on a Windows 7 Home computer. I have numerous computers running Windows 10 home, all can access the files. All using Norton security and firewall. My own computer was running Windows 10 Home, and I upgraded to PRO, and no problem accessing shared files.


    I added a new computer to our network, with Windows 10 PRO. I can not access the Windows 7 computer, get the infamous 0x80070035 error code. I have turned off the firewall and still can't access the Windows 7 home computer. I can access another Windows 10 computers, if I login to that computer.


    Anyone have any thoughts?

    :)

    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?
