I cannot acces her laptop. So I cannot see her shared folders.

In reply to#18740
Other than Windows Defender, is she running some 3rd-party anti-malware
software?  Many AV programs include firewalling features.

Is she running a firewall other than the bundled Windows Firewall?  If
just using the Windows Firewall, go into it to look at what rules are
defined.  If no, is she using any Windows Firewall helper tool?

On her computer, run firewall.cpl.  In the left panel, click on
"Advanced settings".  Check there the firewall is enabled for all
network profiles.  Click on Advanced Settings to get the rules manager.
Look for any red-colored hazard icons indicating blocking rules.  On her
computer, I'd focus more on the inbound rules, but outbound rules could
also affect networking from her computer to other hosts.

Some utilities to make the Windows Firewall more interactive will change
the default behavior where all connect attempts are blocked unless
whitelisted.  The firewall helper pops up an alert saying something
wanted to connect, and you can block (default), allow temporarily, or
allow always (which adds a rule).

As I recall, 3rd-party Windows Firewall helpers changed a registry
setting that reversed the firewall's behavior where it would then block
all unless allowed by a prompt to the user.  They work by monitoring
events in the event logs (I forget the status code).  When an event is
triggered for the block (now the default), the helper's popup appears
asking what you want to do (Block, Allow Now, Allow Always).  If you
allow, the helper adds a rule to the Windows Firewall to add an allow
rule.  

https://www.binisoft.org/wfc.php

I think that was the one I experimented with many years ago.  It changes
the Windows Firewall to block all unless excepted in a prompt very
similar to how 3rd-party firewalls behave in more strict modes.
However, many 3rd-party firewalls have whitelists of apps (by hash) to
eliminate many of the prompts that nuisance a user to death making
decisions they are often ill-equipped to answer.  The pre-defined
whitelist reduces the number of prompts, but there are still a lot of
them until you train the firewall (add rules).  After a period of
training, the prompt level wanes.  Another similar helper app is
simplewall.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/47481/windows-firewall-block-all-traffic-by-default-unle

If you right-click on the root tree node in the "Windows Defender
Firewall with Advanced Security" dialog (where you were looking at
rules, select Properties, and you can see the default behaviors for
inbound and outbound traffic.

Without a 3rd-party helper (to present prompts on all connect attempts)
or change the default behaviors of the Windows Firewall, the defaults
are:

Firewall state: On
  Inbound connections: Block
  Outbound connections: Allow
  Customize: all network adapters are selected
  
Settings -> Customize:
  Display a notification (for inbound connections blocked to a program): Yes
  Allow unicast response: Yes
  
Logging: You could enable to see if something shows up when you are 
         trying to connect to her computer.

On the target laptop open Properties for each drive and/or folder you 
want to access. Select Sharing, then Advanced Sharing and turn on 
(adding a share name). Select permissions and grant access to Everyone 
(and/or a named user if preferred).

Possibly.  I've only trialed the free version of Bitdefender which does
not have all the features of the paid version.

https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/blog/hotforsecurity/free-vs-paid-security-software-which-is-better-for-you

That notes the paid version includes a firewall.  Is she using the free
or paid version?

I don't remember if the free version had a "disable" feature where you
could temporarily disable Bitdefender Free while troubleshooting.  I
would a paid version to have such an override.  Check if you can disable
Bitdefender.  Because AV software digs deep into the OS, you may have to
check if it has a disable that survives a reboot of Windows, so the AV
is not active when Windows starts.  Some AVs have the override during
the current Windows session, but a reboot has them active again.

https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/28557/

Personally I would prefer one option that would disable all of the AV
program, and it would remain disabled even after a reboot, but that
might weaken the protection (even for itself).  Most, maybe all, AVs run
proxies through which to interrogate network traffic.  Even if you
disable the AV, likely the traffic still has to pass through their
proxy.  If their proxy is screwing up the networking, it could continue
screwing it up when the interrogation is disabled.  That's why a reboot
is needed, and where the AV doesn't restart itself, to ensure ALL of the
AV is out of the way during troubleshooting.

Oops, I forgot that I'm using the Public networking profile which bars
all the file/folder sharing stuff.

Because all inbound and outbound connections are allowed, you would
never get a prompt that something wants to make a connection, but that
seems to be how you want your computer, or hers, to operate.  I would
suspect that means there should be no Block rules in Windows Firewall
(those having a red hazard icon).

Probably one of those features that get enable during Windows startup.
However, since EVERYTHING in or out is allowed without any prompt to the
user, not sure that anything would get logged.  Nothing gets blocked.  

When you click on Customize for the Logging option, the next dialog
shows where will be the log file. The default is:

%systemroot%\system32\LogFiles\Firewall\pfirewall.log

but you can change to save elsewhere.  This dialog doesn't create the
log file, so I don't understand why you say it cannot find it unless you
changed from the default, but specified an invalid location.  The
logfile probably doesn't get created until there is something to log, so
may "can't find" meant you tried to open the logfile in Notepad before
it got created.

In the Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc), look under Applications and Services
Logs/Microsoft/Windows/NetworkProfile.  A 4004 event gets logged
whenever there is a network connection or re-identified.  Under the NCSI
node, 4042 events indicate the network discovery tool awakened to
determine if the computer is on an Internet connection, on a domain
network, or behind a captive portal.

Back on the compmgmt.msc tool ran on her computer, did it list any
shares (to which you or the "other pc's" can connect)?  Finding the
computer doesn't mean it is sharing anything.

Something I just remembered is that some firewalls in cable modems,
switches, or routers can restrict which hosts can connect to which.
That is, all the hosts may be allowed Internet access, but not allowed
to connect to other intranet hosts.  You'd have to visit the internal
web server in the switch/router/modem to see how it is configured.

The paid version is installed. And there is a firewall indeed, but I

In the Bitdefender article referenced before:

https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/28557/

there is a slider just for the Firewall.  Each component has its own
slider.  I did not see a slider to disable all components at once.

If disabling just the firewall in Bitdefender does not help, I'd disable
everything in Bitdefender.  I'd then restart Windows, and check all the
disables were still effected; i.e., that they did not get reenabled
after a reboot.

I see in your reply to Frank that UNC pathing works, so you can reach
her computer from all other computers.

In a prior reply of mine (Message-ID: <12ms3gulh2znv$.dlg@v.nguard.lh>),
I listed the protocols that were available for my Ethernet adapter in my
desktop PC (running Windows 10).  Other than the Npcap protocols (used
for streaming capture), do you have the same list of protocols?

Run: ncpa.cpl
Right-click on network adapter.  Properties.

What do you have listed on your computers, and on hers?  Do you both
have "Client for Microsoft networks" listed, and enabled?  That is used
for file sharing on a LAN.  The "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft
Networks" should also be listed, and enabled.

  Huh?

  In another response [1], you say that there is no result if you do
"\\Computer\Share" testing from the other PCs to your wife's laptop.

  These two statements contradict eachother.

Her laptop is visable on all other systems, but the shares are not. I 
can only see the symbol of her laptop.
\\Computer\share doesn't do anything.

That's because you haven't configured the system correctly. Your Wife's 
machine is still "part of a business network". See this image:

<https://i.imgur.com/QDoQ6wh.png>

You just need a correct setting. First it has to be a private Network; 
Then you need to change the setting as shown in the above image. Don't 
just say it is not part of a business network. You need to check it to 
make sure the settings is correct.

I am assuming that firewall has been set correctly as well. I haven't 
read the entire thread because it has become ridiculously large for a 
simple fix.

By the way when something is in private network, it uses the IP address 
such as 192.168.x.x. This IP address cannot be hacked unless the hacker 
has access to your router.  These IP addresses are called "Bogon IP 
addresses".

All the IP addresses are 192.168.1.xxx.
Where xxx is different for all the machines, where they get their IP 
address from the router, depending on their MAC addresses.

[After reading all responses sofar.]

  AFAICT, you didn't specifically say if *other* (than your) pc's can
access her pc, but I assume they can't, otherwise it would be incorrect
for you to say "so this is a problem with her laptop".

  Given that assumption:

  Let her laptop try to connect to *itself*. And do *not* try to 'open'
her laptop by clicking on its name in the 'Network' tree in the
left-hand pane, but type '\\<name_of_her_computer>' in the top bar of
File Explorer.

If her  computer is not accessible on all of the computers, you need to 
focus on HER computer.  It is her computer that is not allowing other 
computers to access her computer.

If there are multiple Other computers, can they acces each other shared 
folder?

If you have not defined any rules or changed away from defaults in to
whatever access point to which she connects via wifi, see if resetting
that access point solves the problem.  For example, in a prior cable
modem I had, I could define a rule or setting in the modem that allowed
my host to have Internet access, but prevent any intranet hosts from
connecting to me.  I could get out, but no one could get in.  That
restriction would disappear after resetting the cable modem.

Does her laptop connect via wifi to a cable modem, or an access point
(AP) aka repeater/switch?

I asked previously about using UNC pathing, but you didn't say if those
worked, or not.  Instead you clicked on her host (presumably shown in
File Explorer under the Network node).  So, UNC pathing does work to get
to shared folders on her computer.

In your opener post, you said you had to enable Netbios over TCP.  How
did you do that?  Was it:

- Run: ncpa.cpl.
- Right-click on the network adapter, and select Properties.
- Select IPv4 protocol.  Click Properties.
- General tab. Click Advanced.
- WINS tab.
- Network tab.
- Advanced button.

We don't know if you or her are using dynamic IP addresses assigned by
some upstream DHCP server (e.g., in the cable modem), or you configured
your and her network adapters to use static IP addresses.  For the
Netbios setting above, is it at Default?

In the prior dialog (IPv4 Properties), General tab, is the adapter
configured for dynamic or static IP address?  If static, what is
specified for her computer, and the other computers trying to operate in
the same workgroup?  That is, is the submask the same for all?  

If dynamic, is her computer and all the others using the same upstream
DHCP server?

Does not make any sense. She has internet, and if I use my laptop with 
W11 Pro, it also has contact with our AP, and my laptop is accessible in 
the LAN.

An AP, which is by cable connected to the router.

I can't remember. I followed instructions in one of the answers in this

All pc's en laptops get their fixed IP address from the router, defined
