Windows 11 Problem

[djmwright]

Hi, I have a zen mini mark 3. It uses Linux and hosts 2 music servers (a modified LMS server and Asset UPnP server). The music folders are visible via Asset on all networked devices. The music folders are visible via LMS on networked ios devices but not via my main PC running Windows 11. When I try to get into music folders using Windows File Explorer, I get the message "Windows cannot access \\zenmini". Seems its a network problem. I've tried the obvious solutions like switching off Windows defender but nothing has worked. Any ideas? Thanks. djmwright

I don't know about the Zen Mini. You probably better ask them.

But I wouldn't be surprised if the Zen was using the outdated SMB1
protocol. As it is insecure newer Windows versions refuse to use it. If
that was the case you could probably apply some registry hack in Windows
to tell it to give up security and connect anyway.

Try asking your vendor first.

I have asked them. They don't use v1. They will be logging onto my laptop next week to investigate. Thought I’d ask here first.

Have you tried using the server's IP address?

\\192.168.1.???

Yes I did but that wasn't the problem.
Guest access in SMB2 and SMB3 is disabled by default in Windows 11.
