Windows cannot Access......<computer name>
I have tried several times to connect an older W10 PC with my W11 PC and fail to achieve my goal. I get same sort of error on both machines. The File Sharing etc all seems to be correct. I can't 'see' the two PC's across the network but can't access the files Any help appreciated From W11...- Peter H Williams
