Homegroup and Network Sharing problem after motherboard upgrade.
Hi guys,
I replaced my motherboard a couple of days ago and didn't go the route of doing a fresh install as is always suggested but everything is working fine except the Homegroup and Network sharing.
Beforehand everything was sharing OK but now PC 1 can only see the folders that are shared on PC 2 through Homegroup but it won't go into any folder and I get this error. Under Network (on the left panel in any folder) it can see PC 2 but can't even see the shared folders and I get the same error when I click it.
I tried with Windows firewall off and get a different message.
I've tried all sorts of stuff to get it working from checking all the correct services are running to redoing permissions but nothing has worked.
Since the motherboard upgrade, i haven't added any new software or touched any settings but I did update the Realtek LAN driver and also rolled back to the previous one after to see if that was the issue but again no joy.
Also everything going the other way is fine, PC 2 can see and access PC 1's shared folders and files through the Network and Homegroup.
Any idea's guys? Sorry if I've not been thorough enough, I'll update with anything that's needed :)
