Win11 24H2 Installed, now no network sharing
I upgraded to 24H2 Pro on my desktop and one laptop.
Two laptops still on 23H2 Pro.
The laptops on 23H2 still have network sharing seeing all PCs and able to access the shared folders.
The 24H2 PCs see the other PCs, but have no access to sharing, with error message 'Network Path Not Found'.
Network settings on all 4 PCs are the same, although SMB1 was not installed on the 24H2 machines!
I went to the Tutorial and tried the suggestions there, but no luck.
There must be something obvious, but I cannot see what it is.

If you're using VPN, try disabling it temporarily, see if it helps.
Alternatively, try disabling Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) temporarily in Network Adapter properties and check if it helps.
If issue still persists, refer other suggestions in this fix:

Have you restarted the laptop after enabling smb ?
Verify whether smb is enabled or not
