Can’t Find Shared Network Computer, Drive, File and Folder in Windows 10/8/7 [Tutorial]
132One of the most powerful features available in modern computing is the creation of local area networks that allow you to share movies or music files across all the devices in your home or office. You can use a network to set up a media server, to share printers, scanners, or other peripherals, or just to share files between two machines. However, although in principle networking your computers is fairly simple, in practice it can be really difficult to get it working properly. A common problem is the inability of one machine to see shared folders on another machine. In Windows 10 this problem has been reduced greatly in frequency, but it still does occur. In this tutorial, I will show you how to resolve the issue if your PC cannot see shared folders in Windows 10.
The objective for this lesson is to explain what network drives and network locations are, what they do, why they are useful, and how to use them.
We will start by defining these two concepts and compare their characteristics, so that you know what a network drive is and how it differs from a network location. Also, you will understand when to use one or the other.
You can enhance how accessible network drives or network locations are by creating shortcuts to them on the Start screen, the Desktop or the taskbar.
