Windows 10 Network

If Win 10 PC is not visible on the network, try this . . .
Windows has removed SMB1 on recent versions and this is supposed to be the fix:
“Start the “Function Discovery Provider Host” and “Function Discovery Resource Publication” services
But I needed to start SMB1 - it was on my system but turned off.

Also make sure you are using your user profile name as log in credentials.
You can find the name
1. Computer Management under users
2. The name of your user folder
It is usually the same as your Windows log in name but not always.
