    Hi to all

    Everything was fine until I upgraded Windows to this 24H2 update couple of days before.
    I had Zidoo as network drive mapped on my Windows 11 and now suddenly Win 11 doesn't see shared folders of Zidoo, actualy under Network there is nothing there anymore.

    Anyone experienced the same problem and do you have possible solution ?

    Thanks

    24H2 needs a password for shares. I enabled password on the zidoo samba server and after a reboot of the zidoo it worked again.

    Ok, I went and enabled samba server password , rebooted Ziddo , rebooted router and my PC and nothing. Tried twice and nothing.
    On my PC under Network there is no Zidoo shared folders. I tried again to map network drive (as I had before this) but there is nothing under Network to be mapped.
    Network discovery is enabled so not sure what else I need to enable as it was before this.

    Just to add that I can access Zidoo GUI from web browser on this PC

    Maybe I need to set password now for this PC too ??

    Do you mean that you have no password for your windows user?
    I am not sure if the zidoo was listed under network, i typed \\ip in the explorer adress bar and it asked for the samba user and password. Later i tried it with the zidoo hostname and it worked also.

    Oh, thanks, that worked..........I entered \\IP in File explorer and that worked.

    Actually that worked in File explorer but I can not map network drive as this way windows doesn't see any device on network. I tried to type samba server name or Zidoo IP, and I enter username and password but it is responding only with can't access.
    How you set this ?

    UPDATE: I managed , beside IP there should be \Share too. Now it works
