Setting up a home network

[mikeoliver1313]

I'm trying to set up a network between my Windows 11 laptop and my Windows 10 desktop for the first time. On my laptop, I can see my desktop, but when I try to access it, I get this error:


Windows cannot access \MIKE


Error code: 0x80070035


On my desktop, when I try to access my laptop, I can see the C: drive, but I can't open it-I can only access the Users folder
I’m on private wireless network

Mark the interfaces as PRIVATE/CORP on both sides, enable network sharing if disabled. Ping the hostnames from both sides - if not found, try to access by IP. Then fix the permission issues if any(assign network access permissions, maybe setup passwords for accounts).

If your notebook is running 11 Pro then it's a change Microslop did to make SMB sharing more secure. Most people in this thread used PS to fix the problem. But you can use regedit or gpedit.msc.

SMB1 is both slower and insecure. Enabling guest access isn't a great idea either, and neither is disabling SMB signing. Both Windows devices and devices using Samba support modern settings just fine.

In my experience, it's often a firewall issue.

Hello, I tried all of the above and nothing worked. I even turned off the firewalls on both of my PCs. When I ping the computer name, nothing comes up, but when I ping the IP address, it works.





One thing I did notice is that when I’m on my desktop trying to access the laptop, I cannot access the C drive/folder, but I can access the Users folder.





I’ve also included some pictures. I’m usually pretty decent with computer stuff, but this one has me completely stumped.

Did you configure permissions for the user you're using to authenticate to the network share?

I have one of the settings disabled through gpedit and things generally work. I have 2 notebooks that fall outside normal behavior.

1. The first has the same behavior as what you noted: can't access the C drive. You also can't use just "c" because historically it is an administrative share and must be referenced by "C$" as a hidden shared folder. For this computer, a specific shared folder works.
2. The second has some setting messed up after upgrading to W11 because it has 2 network adapters--wifi and hardwired--and the system sets the network to public and can't be changed to private. I didn't feel like resetting the network configuration.

Most of the time I just issue "net use ..." then transfer files but I now RDP into the computer then access through \\tsclient\c.

Yes, I believe so. All of the folders have permission
