I have tried everything but cannot seem to solve this problem
Can anyone advise what to do next please
Hello subfun,
Not sure what you have already tried tried but the following thread has a solution that has worked for some:
One or more network protocols are missing, solution
Tried the install but still get the message one or more network protocols are missing from this pc
OK will try these.
Is it one at a time and see what happens or apply all at the one time
Are you trying to open shared files and folders, If so read on.
Although not a fix for your problem, A workaround would be to map the folders in File Explorer and that way you would be able to see the shared folders as drives in File Explorer under My PC .
Step 1:
To map the folders in File Explorer you will need to know the IPv4 Address of the computer that you want to connect to and to do that you will have to open a command prompt on the computer you want to connect to and type or pasteinto it.Code:ipconfig
In my case the IPv4 Address is 192.168.100.102 yours will more than likely be different.
Step 2:
Now on a different computer open File Explorer and type in \\your IP here\
Code:\\192.168.100.102\
Now right click on a folder and select Map network drive... and follow the prompts
To make this work a little better I would suggest you set a static IP for all your computers.
