Server not showing up on XP systems only?

The server that I use to backup all of my systems suddenly will not show up on the network for any of my Windows XP computers. This server is the only machine not showing up in the network for XP. What's strange is that the server does still show up perfectly fine for all of my Windows 7 systems. Any clue as to why this would be?
 
Solution
If the "server" is a Windows 10 box, then it is quite possibly because of the disabling of SMB V1 protocol with the 1803 Windows update.

Thank you for your response! That's an interesting thought. I'm running Windows Server 2012 R2 which is a Windows 8 box I believe. I'm not sure if that changes anything with the update. I know that when I browse my server's features it shows that I have SMB 1.0 installed and checked still.
