Windows 10: Windows 11 and Windows 10 mixed network issues

I have a mixed home network environment with three Windows 10 laptops and one Windows 11 laptop. All machines are connected correctly, but one problem is raring its head. It's the same old problem Microsoft seems to have never fixed. I open my File Explorers on all the laptops, navigate to the Network library folder. All the Windows 10 laptops display all the laptop names on the network. The Windows 11 laptop displays all the name except for itself. This problem occurs whether the LLDP and Link-Layer drivers are selected or not. Or is this a matter of a broken File Manager through all these ye

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
