October 25, 20169 yr this might be coming to a hotfix near you, everybody switch their pc os to linux right now! :-) http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/09/29/microsoft_warns_windows_security_fix_may_break_network_shares/
October 27, 20169 yr preventing NT LAN Manager (NTLM) Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication to non-private SMB resources when users are signed in to Windows via a Microsoft Account (https://www.microsoft.com/account) and connected to a “Guest or public networks” firewall profile. Looks like nothing has changed to affect most normal users. This only affects Single Sign-On (using Microsoft account) and only if you have your current network set to "Guest or public networks" instead of "Private" or "Enterprise". This is to prevent a specially crafted attack that could snatch your Microsoft account credentials if your computer is tricked into connecting to an SMB or CIFS share on the Internet, not usually on your own LAN.
