  1. Workgroup access


    My desktop running Windows 10 Pro 20H2 connects to router via Ethernet.

    My laptop running Windows 10 Home 20H2 connects to router via WiFi.

    Both have been moved to the same novel workgroup name.

    On "This PC" under "Network", the laptop can see the desktop, but the desktop cannot see the laptop.

    What need I do?

    :)

    After KB4058043, cannot access workgroup

    Everything was working until I installed KB4058043. I do not know if that was a coincidence or not, but after the reboot, I cannot access any of the computers on my workgroup. I do use Kaspersky anti-virus (reinstalled it just in case).

    I do see this:

    Internet is working on all of the computers.

    Suggestions?
