    Cannot network three computers in my home


    All Win 10, 64 bit, patched to date,
    Deskstone has pro, hard wired to an asus router.
    Elaines iss pro connects wifi
    Rolling stone is Asus laptop, wifi, win 10 home.

    Deskstone sees rollingstone but Windows troubleshooter reports: Windows could not automatically detect this network's proxy settings.

    Deskstone does not see Elaines but shows both itself and Elaines as Media devices in file explorer

    Elaines sees Deskstone and can only connect to Default user.

    Rollingstone sees Deskstone but troubleshooter reports same proxy settings problem. Elaines is shown as a media device.

    Hi stonecherub

    Here is the forums document on sharing in an 1803 world. Please note the two services that must be adjusted.

    Share Files and Folders Over a Network in Windows 10

    Are you using proxy settings for any special VPN or corporate software?

    Proxy is found under Settings > Network and Internet > last option left hand column. I'm not so I have Automatically detect settings.
