How do I setup network to share files since homegroup is no longer
I have two computers setup on a network. Both are running build 17120.1 64 bit. For some reason the second computer can't see my files or even my computer. Thanks.

Two potential issues here - I've had decent results installing the older
SMB protocol from the 'add windows features tab of the Win 7 Control
Panel to access Samba servers. Recently, the relatively new installed
Hypervisor network adapter appears to conflict with many WINS/SMB
initialization routines, my only successful work-around has been to
disable or remove this adapter until all local network drives have been
mapped and attached, after which Hypervisor adapter doesn't seem to have
any negative effects.

From which computer do I do this? From the PC or the Laptop? The PC has all the files that are needing to be shared.
Thanks. :)
