Can't see shared drives on Windows 10 Home


Recommended Posts

You are not alone.  Win10 SMB has been a minefield from the start.   I would suggest that you start with this thread at its very end and work your way back until you get it to work again.

One important thing with any Windows version SMB is setting up your server to be the Local Master.  You can find instructions on how to do that in the first post of the above thread.  Samba is a kludge from the Windows for Workgroups when it was introduce to connect together two to (perhaps) a dozen computers in a closed network for a small organization.  I think you can still connect up one of those old computers up to a modern SMB network and it would function!
