After working trying to get my new Windows 11 computer to access the Shared folders on the LAN, and the problem of staying connected to the LAN which developed later, I found that three instructions needed to be changed. I found them after many internet searches. Apparently Windows 11 by default will not let what it considers insecure connection. With the router connection to the LAN, and all three computers on the LAN are full protected, I feel that my personal system is secure. After running these three lines and changing the word everything worked as I wanted; staying attached to the LAN and being able to use the LAN folders on the Window 11 computer These are run from Terminal (admin). Each should be copied as one line and paste in to the Terminal window. reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\ /f /v RequireSecuritySignature /t REG_DWORD /d 0 reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\LanmanWorkstation /f /v AllowInsecureGuestAuth /t REG_DWORD /d 1 reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\LanmanWorkstation /f /v AllowInsecureGuestAuth /t REG_DWORD /d 1
