Windows 10 SMB shares

file-sharingnetwork-drivesmbwindows 10

I just installed Windows 10 and I can't connect to any of the shared drives on my QNAP station.

My network is a private network and I have enabled file and printer sharing, network discovery and file sharing for devices that use 40 or 56-bit encryption.

On the QNAP, the Microsoft networking service is enabled (as a standalone server) and it has the latest firmware update.

I have another Windows 10 PC in the network (still on an Insider preview), which does have access to the same shares.

  1. Run Registry Editor (REGEDIT).
  2. Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters

  3. Name the new value as AllowInsecureGuestAuth and set its value data to 1.

or:

c:\windows\system32> set-smbserverconfiguration -enablesmb2protocol $false
