Windows 10, Version 1809. Network does not show computers

I'm on version 2004 now but still experiencing these issues.

When I had the problems it was v. 1809 timeframe.  My 1809 era problems went away with the New User account in v. 1809 and have not come back.  I'm now at Win 10 Home x64 v. 1909 Build 18363.1016.  Maybe it's time to retire this "Windows 10, Version 1809. Network does not show computers" thread and move on to more current versions.

Some of my mysterious network problems were fixed when I deleted my Windows User/Sign In account on my laptop and created a new User account.  Yes, it's a bit of a hassle to rebuild/reload everything, but, it did fix some things seemingly permanently for almost a year now.  Instead, you might try just adding a clean, new user account and see if that account has similar problems or not.  Might be worth a try depending upon how desperate/frustrated you are.  Good Luck!   

Are we still talking about Windows Ver 1809 or Ver 2004 ?

I have 5 Computers with windows 10 Pro v 2004 (Build 19041.450) in my home private network and only 2 exhibited the problem intermittently because it is a timing issue with some network adapters and network discovery service. 

All I had to do to work around the problems was to enable Remote Desktop on the failing machines.

After that I had not had a failure in over 2 years with V 1903, 1909, 2004 and Insider Beta and Development builds.

It looks like the problem occurs when the service Function Discovery Resource Publication is starting before the network adapter is ready.

As folks have reported in the past, some of the unofficial fixes work for some machines while most machines they do not.  I have the latest in hardware Intel 8700, Asus Z390E (w/ Intel gigabyte LAN) and a fresh install of Windows 10 from last week yet, no changes on the network discovery issue.  I also have a Sandy Bridge (Intel LAN) machine and a socket 775 Intel 9550 (Marvell Gigabit LAN) that both suffer from the same concerns with network discovery working as it should, via browsing.  All machines have the latest bios, drivers etc. Still nothing helps all of these machines which tells me, the fix is going to have to come from Microsoft. 

indeed and it seems I am alone but I've had some weird internet access issues as well. Youtube would work but nothing else.
