I just bought a new PC and am trying to connect to another computer by sharing on private network. My old computer was connected to the network and I have turned on network sharing etc and turned off password protection on new windows 11 computer.

I have changed manual to automatic on the 4 items recommended under services.msn

The windows 10 computer sees my windows 11 computer under network

How do i see the windows 10 computer in network on my windows 11 computer so I can connect by ethernet to Quickbooks as my old computer did.

Do I need to up date all computers to windows 11, same versions?

    Where is the "mapped drive". I don't see it anywhere and it doesn't come up in searches.

    Step 3 reads: "Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall"

    I don't see this option in my Windows Defender Firewall manager:

    I tried going through my "Windows Defender Firewall Properties", but saw nothing related to "File and Printer Sharing."

    My old Win7 Backup computer can see my Win11 desktop, and under Network, Win11 lists the networked PC under "Media Devices".

    My Win10 tablet can access both PCs. The only computer that can't see the others is my Win11 Pro desktop. Please help.
