@KN4THX I’ve tried both but //.

You definitely need to use \\

@Thorr69 Okay ya that's what I had been using. It was hard to imagine it without actually entering it in windows explorer. The other way will open an internet browser.

The only difference I see is the release - I have mine on 1809 (OS Build 17763.737).

@mitu I tried with my Pi 4 running Lakka and having the same issues. Can SSH in but not use samba. Samba has always been weird on my surface pro 3 tbh like if there was an existing quick access (recents) link I could get right in, but otherwise I’d have to try a bunch of times to get in. It would usually work eventually. Now it isn’t. Very frustrating. I’m about to say oh well and go back to just doing things on my usb.

@mitu So I found a suggested fix that worked.

open run (win + R)
gpedit.msc
With local group policy editor open navigate to the following
Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Network > Lanman Workstation
Enable insecure guest logins

This allowed me right into my pi (4) running a source build of RetroPie. Tagged you because I'm not 100% positive how big a risk this is to my CPU and thought you may know.

@hooperre Thanks for the solution - that's basically the same fix applied to Education/Enterprise SKUs back when this settings was enabled about 2 years ago. I guess it tricked down to newer releases.
I guess I'll have to upgrade to the latest version (1903/1904 ?) to give it a test.

Do you happen to know the security implications of leaving this enabled?

mitu

@hooperre Well, Microsofts considers it's insecure, so they must have a reason. I guess is mitigates the risk that someone inadvertently opens a guest only share and mistakenly runs something from it.
