I wasn't sure if i should have posted this on Networking or Windows 10 so forgive me if it's the wrong category.
Anyways, today i was trying to share some files between my Desktop pc (cable) and laptop (wi-fi), without success.
At first i noticed that if i pinged the desktop with the laptop, the desktop replied, but if i pinged the laptop from the desktop the laptop didn't, solved it by changing some firewall rules, but the main problem is still there: if i share a folder with everyone from my Dt. or Lt. neither can see it in the "Network" tab in the file explorer nor if i type the address in the explorer (\\PCNAME\folder etc.), i've made sure that they both have file share enabled and that the firewall isn't blocking them. What do you think?
Edit: ok so...if i share a folder on the desktop, and i go into the network path of the desktop itself, it shows the folder, but if i open it it says it couldn't reach itself...
