RogerBC:  Please, Do this on both PC:
 
 GO to run ( Windows Key + R) 
 
 Please write in the blank space: CMD
 
 Once there Write: ipconfig after that in the black screen search for IPV4 on both computers. (If you could screenshot it and paste here that will help me a lot)

Ok, let's try this: 
 
We have to know if the PC’S are communicate with each other. 

 

In Roger´s computer, please do this: 
 

GO to run (Windows Key + R) 
 
Please write in the blank space: CMD
 
Once there Write : 
 
Ping 192.168.0.19  ( this is your wired connection)
 
After 4 responses  write again 
 
Ping 192.168.0.21  ( this is your Wi-Fi Connection)
 

In Casemore PC’S: 
 
GO to run (Windows Key + R) 
 
Please write in the blank space: CMD
 
Once there Write: 
 
Ping 192.168.0.2

Since updating Windows 10 to 1803 ansd the following Cumulative Update, I can no longer see my PC or my other PC on my network. 

 

 

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s. 

 

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

 

In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.

In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

Thanks, Roger:

 

 The Network communication looks fine. 

We have to look at the Operating System to solve the issue:
 

In Cortana assistant please Write:  Open Network and Sharing Center.

Once there look at the left option: Change advanced sharing settings.

Click on Private and then make sure you have these options enabled:

– Turn on network discovery.
– Turn on file and printer sharing.
 – Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections.

 

 

Then minimize Private and open Guest or Public and make sure you have these options set:

– Turn off network discovery
– Turn off file and printer sharing

Thanks, I gave that a try. It has made the network visible on my other PC (Casemore) where both computers are now visible.

 

On my PC, my PC does not appear in the network but the other PC does. On my PC, Network only shows the other PC but I still can't access the other PC as I get the error message:

 

 \\DESKTOP-DFMAJV1 is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. It does not show my PC but does show the Media Centre on my PC!

 

The other PC shows both PCs on he Network but will not allow me to access the Roger PC.
