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.

    Tengo 2 unidades NAS de CH3HNAS Conceptronic conectadas a mi red doméstica de Windows 11. Después de la última actualización 24H2, las unidades NAS ya no son visibles a través del Explorador de Windows. He intentado todo lo propuesto en este hilo, además de otras cosas que he visto en Internet, sin éxito. Esperemos que Microsoft pueda identificar la causa de este problema generalizado y emitir un parche lo antes posible. Mientras tanto, he revertido mi computadora a una imagen de sistema completa más reciente de Windows 11 23H2 y deshabilité temporalmente la actualización automática de Windows.

    Hola Menorcaman

    Yo tengo el mismo NAS Conceptronic y los mismos problemas y además no veo ningún PC's de mi red ni en los propios se ven en la red, los 3 portatlles estoy igual con 24h2.

    Tengo 2 con w10 y funciona todo rápido y estable. La Red se visibiliza toda PC's y el NAS y otros periféricos que tengo

    Yo no tengo la oportunidad de revertir, las copias las tengo en el NAS y no puedo acceder.

    la24h2 es un fiasco total porque no solo es eso hay mucho mas que no funciona.

    Saludos

    Emilio

    Other windows computers in the network? If it's a SMB from a NAS, you have to put signing on on the NAS (brand specific)

    Try activating NETBIOS (see https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-or-disable-netbios-over-tcp-ip-on-windows-10 )

    Same issue. Happens after latest update. Tried these suggestions, didn't change and all those settings were on and running.

    Microsoft has no real support after causing problems with their updates.

    Anyone have a solution or do I just roll back the update?

    In your next message, you mentioned servers. Are you in a domain and have a domain controller running ?
    Are the servers Windows servers and using which OS version ?
    Which version of Windows 11 do you use now 22H2, 23H2 or 24H2.

    I'm using Windows 11 24H2 now and a Synology NAS, not in domain (home network). For me the NETBIOS trick did work and I can see all shares (Windows pc's and NAS).
    If you're not using a domain, try activating NETBIOS (see

    https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-or-disable-netbios-over-tcp-ip-on-windows-10 )

    If your server is not a Windows server and you're using SMB, see if your "server"as the option for signed SMB.
    (see next article https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/filecab/accessing-a-third-party-nas-with-smb-in-windows-11-24h2-may-fail/4154300 )
