Beans on toast Dave · 28 Aug 2018 at 13:23

reinstalled w10 on my server last night
could connect to a shared folder via android before now i cannot get access

using syncme wireless i cannot even set the pc access to setup username/password, but it see the pc on the network

can get access to another pc via android no issues so its down to the reinstall

can access it via another w10 PC so its shared properly

any ideas?

What SMB versions does the Android device require? The older versions will be disabled by default.

Looking at the app, SyncMe Wireless requires SMB1 and doesn't support newer versions.

On the server, search "Windows Features" and enable SMB1 in the feature list, and that should fix it. Although I wouldn't exactly recommend it and suggest looking for an alternative app that supports a later version of SMB. I know Solid Explorer supports v2 but it doesn't do the automatic syncing if that's what you're after.

have enabled SMB1 on the server, the issue i think its failing to even access the server with username/password even though its correct
