I have a home network comprising four Synology NAS units, a printer, a Dell Desktop, and an MSI laptop, all running the latest update of Windows 11 Pro. On the Dell, all devices usually appear in the File Explorer's network pane, except for the Dell itself, and the MSI laptop, which appears inconsistently. When the MSI is visible, its shared folders are sometimes accessible without issues. However, most of the time, Windows prompts for a username and password, which I cannot provide as they do not exist. I've confirmed through the Credential Manager that there are no stored credentials for the MSI laptop.
On the MSI laptop, the network pane in File Explorer fails to display either computer, though it shows all other devices.
The sporadic appearance of the Network Credentials prompt is frustrating. As a workaround, I access shared folders via a Synology server.
Is there anyone who can offer assistance?
