Hello, after updating win 11 23H2 to 24H2 several "computers" are disappeared under the "network"pane in windows explorer.

The day before updating, all computers were attached to my network and visible in windows file explorer.

After update to 24H2 they were gone!

I did see that after updating the option for media streaming were turned off.

I put The media streaming option on again, but that was not the solution.

    Had this happen to me this weekend. I too had tried turning on and off all services and everything else Microsoft suggested,

    Until I found this link.

    I followed the instructions on the site and now the problem is fixed.

    Make sure you have all passwords requirements off on advance network sharing.

    Also make sure you do this to all windows 11 computers with update, Hope it helps.

    Buenas

    ¿Tenemos solución para el siguientes problema a raíz de actualiza a 24h2 de w11?

    Todos esto hablado varia veces con el Servicio técnico y sin darme una solución.

    Se están pitorreando de nosotros.

    ¿Por que mi red esta estropeada después de actualizar a W11 24h2?

    Quieren que pasemos los equipos a w11 24h2. Yo sigo con tres PC's con w10 y tan feliz. W11 24h2 es un desastre

    Microsoft o soluciona nada, cada vez lo estropea mas.

    Cada actualización me produce errores.

    La ultima 18/02/2025 me bloqueo Office y Adobe. Un desastre.

    El servicio técnico telefónico no te soluciona nada, te lo estropea todavía mas.

    Microsoft solucione los errores que nos ha producido la actualización 24h2.

    I have tried all of the above suggestions and none worked. I have stumbled upon a sort of work around. I have a USB attached to my router and could see just fine under 23H2, updated to 24H2 and the USB is no longer findable. I reinstalled 23H2 and USB was visible. Her is my work around. Under 23H2 I went into File Explorer and pinned my readyshare\USB to Quick Access. After installing 24H2 I noticed that the USB was still pinned to Quick Access and I could open it and read and write to it. I can not see the readyshare\USB on the network nor can I find any information about its, but it works. Maybe those of you with more knowledge of Windows 11 can use this information to determine how to map to the network USB.

    I followed everyone's suggestions to allow the "everyone" account to access the shares, but nothing works. I have just re-installed version 14H2 and noticed one thing: they removed SMB2 and SMB3 support and left only SMB1 (the one they recommend we not use). I surrendered for a while and used login PIN numbers on all the computers. All works, but it is a hassle I don;t need. I also created shares on TrueNas and Openmediavault, which work flawlessly. I am using Kubuntu right now to see if I can migrate all the shares to something easier to configure. Apparently, Kubuntu is working perfectly. It recognizes my wireless NIC, my printers and even my Brother scanner. It is passworded by default, which may be the reason for the flawless connection. The good thing is that I can bypass the password at login if configured at set up. BTW, I also miss the Home Group. MS will need to simplify the process if they want clients to adopt 24H2 more quickly.

    How old is your NAS?

    Does it support SMB3/2, or only SMB1?

    I had to change some settings in my Synology as well, to allow server signing

    you could install SMB 1 under windows features even if this is not recommended

    Admittedly my Conceptronic Ch3HNAS NAS drives are fairly long in the tooth now but I have always been able to browse their content using Windows file Explorer, up to and including windows 11 Pro Version 23/H2. I can also confirm that SMB 1 and 2 are ticked under Windows Additional Features. Therefore, having tried all the various "fixes" detailed in this and other threads, I can only conclude that update 24/H2 has introduced a, so far, unacknowledged anomaly. I am left to wonder why there has been so little input from Microsoft to this official Microsoft Community thread?
