Recently had to do a refresh of Win8.1-64 bit on desktop. Previously, Win 10 laptop & Win 7 laptop could access the desktop's shared folders & files merely by clicking. Now both need to have ID & password in order to read/share w/ desktop (desktop can be seen in network on file explorer but can't be opened without the extra step). Clicking "remember credentials" doesn't carry over, next reboot ID & password are required again. Desktop can access files on either laptop without need for ID & password. Sharing is enabled on all three machines*, supposedly password not required, but situation persists. Can obviously make use of home network OK, but this extra step that wasn't required before is a hassle (and an annoyance since it wasn't needed previously).
*I double-checked to have settings identical on all three.
