Can't see any networked computer

[DKrot]

Hello to everybody!

Strange thing - I can't see any networked driver or computer.
While standart Windows7 Explorer shows all of them with no difficult at all.

Have I turn on something wrong option for that?


Thank you in advance!

Execute this from the address bar:

Code: Select all

::text get("network", 1);

and post the result

XY version?

I can't see any networked driver or computer

After clicking where exactly (screenshot)?

Highend,

Sorry for being out for so long.
I've got a free version which can't run your command.

I discovered that my copy connect network disc or computer if I write the address.
But it doesn't show them on fly whlie standart Explorer shows any of networked computer at the second it enters the net.

It also doesn't show connected phone what is not the problem for Explorer too.

Will be very grateful for solution.

Again, the network devices aren't shown... where?
In the tree under "Network" if you expland the "+" sign?

Is that "Network" place shown at all?
If not,
Configuration | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Show Network folder
is not enabled

And if you connect to a networked computer manually by entering it's UNC name in the address
bar, it still doesn't appear in that place?

Menu - Tools - Tools Special - Browse For Network Server...
Do they appear inside that dialog?

The Pro version supports a fixed list of networked computers which can be user edited where
all entered servers appear under the "Network" item in the tree...
The free version does not support this

It also doesn't show connected phone what is not the problem for Explorer too.

The free version doesn't show these kind of portable devices

Microsoft is now removing smb v1, XYplorer is not able to browser or map and WORKGROUP computer in the LAN, any solution?

I just ran into this as well today, very frustrating, no hints from Windows, you can run this from elevated Powershell window, it fixed it for me, I can't remember if a restart was required, I had to enable it because I have an old unsupported non Windows NAS.

Code: Select all

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName SMB1Protocol

What do you mean, they're "removing" it? You can always reinstall it (it isn't installed by default on fresh installations since 17.09 on some editions and auto-removed after 15 days of non-usage).

The network browser relies on it to e.g. show computers in the network neighborhood if there is no DNS/WINS server on the local network.

If you're are in a single subnet you are free to do this as an alternative (untested how good this works in practice):
- Start the "Function Discovery Provider Host" and "Function Discovery Resource Publication" services, and then set them to Automatic (Delayed Start)
- When you open Explorer Network (through Windows Explorer), enable network discovery when you are prompted

If you have any device in your network that does only support SMB v1 or that doesn't support the WS-DISCOVERY protocol, they won't show up...
