For some while now, (since Windows 10 and all versions of Windows 11) I have have trouble with establishing a reliable bi-directional link between two Windows 11 (both are 25H2) PCs over gigabit ethernet.
When I open explorer on PC 1, I can 'see' the icon for PC 2 under "Network". When I click on the icon for PC2, the shared drives appear and files can be read or files transferred OK between PC 1 and 2. I can also map an network drive without a problem.
When I open an explorer window on PC2, I can 'see' the icon for PC 1 but when I click on it, all that happens is "Windows cannot access 'PC1'" I can ping PC1 ok but that is no surprise..
I have tried disabling Malwarebytes, etc, but to avail,.
