Homegroup is working but can't open folders
I have two desktop computers in a Homegroup, connected by a Netgear router. But my problem is that I can only open folders in one direction (from one PC to other is OK, reverse is not).
PC #1 is Windows 10 Pro 1607 x64, using a Netgear Wi-Fi adapter. Disabled the firewall.
PC #2 is Windows 7-SP1 Pro x64, plugged directly into the router (Ethernet). For test, Windows firewall disabled, uninstalled the AV.
I can create a new Homegroup, join both computers, and see and open folders on the Win 10 PC from the Win 7 PC. But from the Win 10 PC I can see the folders on the Win 7 PC, however clicking on them does nothing. No errors.
I have checked that all necessary clients and protocols are enabled in both network adapters. I have checked that IPv6 is enabled for LAN in the router. All necessary services are started on both PC's.
I know the network path is working, because the Win 7 PC is used as a HTPC in the living room, and has a web server that I can access OK from a browser on the WIN 10 PC.
I have rebooted after every change, even deleted the files from the peernetworking folder. I am stumped.
