Windows 10 PC can't see other shares in Workgroup
We set up our small business network as a Workgroup awhile ago with all Windows XP computers. Some have been since upgraded to Windows 7, others to Windows 10. The most important issue is a folder on an XP machine that all others in the network need to be able to access.
We just installed a new Windows 10 PC. I joined the workgroup, but not all the PCs in the workgroup show up in File Explorer (in particular, the one I need is not there). I tried mapping a drive letter to the share, but the login screen is confusing, asking for an email address and PIN (I've never seen or used anything like this, always logged on via account on the target computer).
So I click "More Choices", where it allows me to put in the userid and password of the matching account on the target XP box, but it just returns me to the "email/pin" screen with a cryptic message:
"A specified login session does not exist. It may already have been terminated."
Help...
