Shared Folders not showing up (weird setup)

[BaaBaaFatSheep]

Hello,

I am having issues with accessing files from my main media storage computer (Windows 10) from my desktop computer I use for gaming (Also Windows 10). I have shared the folders I wanted to share on the media computer, and these folders are visible on my Macbook (OS X El Capitan) which is connected to the same network Via WiFi. However as stated before the folders are not seen on my gaming computer.

Right now I am presuming this is due to how my computer I use for gaming is connected to the internet. It is setup to access internet by being tethered from my Macbook (connected to WiFi) using an Ethernet cable.

Regards,
Luke

Yeah, that'll do it

Err, I meant as in the setup I have right now isn't working, and presuming isn't working due to the setup I have.

Correct

Using that method, your gaming system has no way to find a network path to your media centre.

You can get a USB wireless adapter for the gaming desktop and connect directly to your wifi and issue resolved.
