Found out the hard way trying to copy a few files over my LAN it takes forever & stays @ 0%. KB4535996 is the cause MS are saying they are not aware of any issues with this update but many people have reported this & their QA is recently terrible so do what I did & uninstall until they re-issue!

I've never been able to get file sharing working properly since Windows 10, so I've given up. I just copy what I need onto USB drives to transfer them across now. :o

I find file sharing buggy, one computer sees the other computer, but then vice versa one can't see the other :confused:

Yep I got that. This machine I'm on now just disappeared off the network last week and won't show on the others.

Edit: Ok, a quick Google and found if you reset the network (last option under Setting/Network/Status) and reboot, then re-enable network discovery the the computer shows up on the network as it should.
