Stop using SMB1

I doubt anyone disagrees that the sooner SMB1 is gone, the better. However, rather than ridiculing people who continue to use it, take a minute to stop and think who created it in the first place and why. I'm talking about you, Microsoft. The use case for homes and small businesses is obvious. Many homes and most small businesses have multiple computers and a requirement to share files and printers between them. While you seem to be maligning the network neighborhood, it fulfils the file and printer sharing requirement for homes and small businesses. To be honest, I find your suggestion to use mapped drives for file sharing rather than the network neighborhood to be ridiculous. If SMB1 is archaic, then mapped drives is pre-archaic. Setting up mapped drives on any more than a few computers is time-consuming, tedious and error prone. On the contrary, it's trivially easy to share files using the network neighborhood. Rather wasting the effort to implement (and deprecate) the home group feature (which was an unreliable POS), Microsoft should put some effort into implementing a new version of network neighborhood that facilitates users eliminating older versions of SMB as they eliminate their older computers. Surely if this was done, the vast majority of users would not have any reason to continue using SMB1 and the problem would be solved. Instead, you're taking the approach of beating users with a stick to stop using an outdated feature without providing an alternative. Way to go, Microsoft.
