Not only do you need to set the Share permission, but also Security on the folders that are shared. I saw this exact problem with the shared folder on an old large format scanner Windows NT. I re enabled it and access to the folder was restored. Sounds like an SMB issue. SMBv1 will be disabled on your server correctly and the clients are trying to connect that way by default.
You can amend the SMB settings int he registry of the clients quiickly and easily. Firstly, I would suggest you to check who are the user or department allow to access to that share folder,. If that particular shared folder was meant for a certain group or department to access, In this situation, that individual user who does not belong to that department will be prohibited to access that folder because it wasn't not listed in that Group Active Directory.
If that user was not from the group or department i mentioned above but only allow to access to a individual folder or sub-folder, You may add that user in the Security Tab located in the Properties option. After that perform a mapping to that folder using the path. However, if you feel your home network is super secure, you can always turn off password protected sharing, which means anyone can connect to the shared folder without having to type in a username or password.
Here you will see an option called Password protected sharing , which you can turn off. I personally keep it turned on, but if you really hate having to type in a username and password to connect, this is an option. Also, if you use Windows 10 without a password, this would save you from having to setup a password on your account. Note that even if you have a Windows account with a password, if you turn off password protected sharing, then people can still connect without typing any credentials.
If Shared is not in the sidebar, you have to add it. With Finder open, click on Finder and then Preferences at the top. Click on Sidebar and check all the items under Shared. Now go back to Finder and wait till your computer shows up. Note that it can take a little while until the Windows 10 PC shows up. Hi Dan. Was this issue ever resolved? I've suddenly started experiencing a very similar issue; my Windows 10 PC can no longer access shares on my WHS server if I use the server's name.
Very frustrating. The reason you cannot access your WHS v1 file share is because as of Windows 10, version or later, Microsoft has disabled the SMB v1 protocol by default. This is how you used to connect to your WHS. Microsoft, of course, recommends that you leave this off, especially on laptops or other devices that may connect to "hostile" networks.
However, for my home devices I don't worry about it too much. You can re-enable SMB v1. I don't recommend it for security reasons, but if you want to experiment and see if this is the reason, here's what I did to re-enable You will do all these steps on the Windows 10 machine that cannot connect.
Nothing to be done on the WHS box. Run the "Turn Windows Features on or off" in the control panel. Scroll down to SMB 1. Expand, then turn on check "SMB 1. Make sure the "Automatic Removal" is not clicked. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. I have the same question Report abuse.

If so, disable the software and check if you are able to share the files amongst the computers. How satisfied are you with this reply?
