Hello
Until very recently I used to be able to read and write onto my laptop from my PC, but suddenly it has stopped working for no apparent reason.
Background
In Windows Explorer, under Desktop ==> Network, I can see the name of the laptop. However when I click on it, a window called "Windows Security" comes up wanting a username and password. None of my usernames and passwords seem to work.
My PC and laptop are both Windows 8.1 Pro (x64), and both on the same router connected by Ethernet cable. It is a home-office situation. I do not require any security at all between the two machines.
How do I set up something from scratch that will work?
Many thanks
J
