I'll try it again as you said with the \d$ at the end.

It would not connect. I double checked the IP address, it was correct.

Thanks for the post, I will read it through.
This nonsense started about a month ago after one of Micronuts famous updates.

I turned off SMB 1.0 including Client and Server, that made no difference
I then turned on SMB 3 Direct but that made no difference at all.
I have set them back to the way the were.

Your post 31 you need to tick the bottom box then enter and admin username and password on the pc your connecting to not yours

Well, I meant turning it on, but since it already was, you can probably scratch that.

Yes that box which will let you enter details

In: "Connect using different credentials" I need to use the password for the device I want to map to? Is that correct?

I used my login user name and password for the Win 10 laptop that I am trying to Map to but it failed to connect. hmmm...

I tried again using the method suggested but got an error message saying: The remote computer isn't responding to connections on port 445.
