Tips for setting up a reliable network between Windows 10 home PCs
I have three Windows 10 Home PCs, all running version 1709 with Norton Internet Security. The three computers are all set up in Norton with full trust of each other. Two are wired and one is wifi. I have set up a workgroup called WORKGROUP that all three are under. Every several months the computers stop seeing each other, or computer A can view and update computer B's files but not the other way around. I spend hours googling the problem, changing permissions and fiddling with services, etc. and most of the time I can get it to work. (I never could get Homegroup to work reliably.) So what is the right way to set it up so they can all read and update each other's files and use each others printers in a trouble-free manner? Was there some change in the 1709 update that is causing me a problem?
None of the computers have any problem connecting to the Internet.
