Computer browser is a legacy service for SMB 1.0 which Microsoft does
not install, by default, since Windows 10.  SMB 1.0 is vulnerable.  My
Windows 10 services.msc doesn't even list the Computer Browser service.
As per below, it is shown deselected (not installed).  

To reenable SMB 1.0:
- Run: optionalfeatures.exe
- Enable "SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support".
- Reboot.

The WS-Discovery protocol showed up in Windows Vista.  

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wsdapi/ws-discovery-specification-compliancehttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wsdapi/ws-discovery-specification-compliance
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WS-Discovery

WS-Discovery does not prevent Computer Browser from finding and
populating the Network Neighborhood folder.  With both running, and each
doing its discovery, the resulting list of computers and network devices
is twice as many: one list from each protocol.

The following 2 services must be available, too, and Running status:
- Function Discovery Provider Host (Manual startup)
- Function Discovery Resource Publication (Auto triggered startup)

I just realized the UPnP Device Host service must be running.  Not
available, and not Manual startup, but in Started status.  Per the
service's description:

  Allows UPnP devices to be hosted on this computer. If this service is 
  stopped, any hosted UPnP devices will stop functioning and no 
  additional hosted devices can be added. If this service is disabled, 
  any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.
  
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Plug_and_Play

In the Network and and Sharing Center under Advanced settings, both
network discovery and file and printer sharing are turned off, but that
is because I'm using the Public networking profile.  Sharing doesn't
work under the Public profile.  Need to use the Private profile.  Fokke
said his computers are using the Private profile, but he needs to check
network discovery and sharing are both enabled under that networking
profile.  Previously he said network discovery was enabled, but I forgot
to ask about sharing in his Private profile.

Sharing doesn't work across subnets which are treated as separate
networks (a network within a network).  Sharing works via broadcast
traffic, but broadcast traffic doesn't travel across subnets.  Fokke
says his computers are configured with static IP addresses by MAC at the
DHCP server in his router/modem.  That's one way to do it, but I go into
the adapter settings on my hosts to define which static IP address they
get, the subnet mask, and do so for *both* IPv4 and IPv6.  I have the
hosts assigned their static IP address, not have the DHCP server assign
IP addresses that are fixed per MAC address.  Just in case his static
setup is incorrect, I'd switch to dynamic addressing on hosts and in the
DHCP server, and retest sharing.  Once that is working, switch the
hosts, one at a time, back to static addressing.

With Fokke specifying static IP addresses for his hosts, but he might
have them on different subnets.  Don't know what static IP addresses
Fokke is using on his hosts.  If the hosts are on different subnets, I
believe sharing will still work if you use IP addresses instead of
hostnames, like:

\\ipaddrs\\sharename

instead of:

\\hostname\sharename

Fokke said he could ping his wife's host from his, so I'd try using her
IP address instead of her computer name.  If the hosts are on different
subnets, use IP addresses.  In the past, WINS was used to resolve
NetBIOS hostnames across subnets.  If UNC pathing works with IP
addresses, I'd map a drive to each share using:

net use h: \\ipaddress\sharename /persistent:yes 
(Drive h: is an example. Use whatever drive letter is available.)

If Fokke can't get any of this flaky Microsoft sharing, login
credentials, and permissions to all work together, I'd get rid of wifi
in the setup, and go with wired connections (Ethernet cable) between the
hosts.  If sharing still doesn't work, maybe go with an FTP server (on
the best managed host) or a NAS device, and put the files there to
share.  Or go really old-school with sneakernet.

Nonsense, the Computer Browser service is the one that actually supplies 
the 'NetBIOS over TCP/IP' functionality, which doesn't depend on the 
version of SaMBa, only that a version of it is running, as you can check 
by looking at its dependencies, which on this PC include both SMBv1, 
because I have enabled it to allow an XP machine to connect, and SMBv2.

Further, the OP himself has indicated that the service is installed, 
enabled, and running correctly on the problem W11 PC.

Further still, when myself I follow the advice I gave to him about 
enabling the visibility of the Discovery Method in Explorer's Network 
view, I note that all but one of my systems there are discovered by 
NetBIOS, except this one which comes up as WSD, so all the *OTHER* 
machines were discovered by NetBIOS, which is provided by the Computer 
Browser service.

As for the rest of your splurge which I have snipped, how exactly was 
any of that supposed to help the OP?

Computer Browser relies on broadcasting which won't work across network
segments.  That's why I asked Fokke about which subnets each host was
configured to be within, and others have asked what network devices were
between the hosts.

Yes, Computer Browser uses Netbios and SMBv1 to provide the "My Network
Places" or "Network Neighborhood" collections, but SMBv1 was disabled by
default since Windows 10 1709 by Microsoft because of vulnerabilities to
malware.  No SMBv2 means no Computer Browser.  They are bundled
together.  You have to go into optionalfeatures.exe to see SMBv1 is not
installed, and then install it SMB 1.0 which incidentally also installs
Computer Browser.  To check, you can also run the following in
Powershell:

Get-SmbServerConfiguration | Select EnableSMB1Protocol

False means it isn't available.

Get-SmbServerConfiguration | Select EnableSMB2Protocol

should return True.

Maybe you and Fokke did upgrades to Windows 10, so you brought along
SMBv1 and Computer Browser from your prior version of Windows.

You and Fokke have the Computer Browser service, but I don't.  Perhaps
that is because you both have your computers in the Private networking
profile, and I don't (no sharing in the Public networking profile).  Or,
because I do fresh installs of Windows, so the dross from the old
version isn't carried forward.

If all your intranet hosts are using Windows 10, or up, and you stop the
Computer Browser service and set to Disabled, can see the other hosts
using just Network Discovery?  Windows 10+ clients should rely solely on
the WS-Discovery protocol.

Under the Private networking profile, is says:

Network Discovery
When network discovery is on, this computer can see other network
computers and devices and is visible to other network computers.

I also mentioned the other services that need to be available or
running.  In addition, in the Windows Firewall's allowed apps, the
following must be enabled:

mDNS (Multicast DNS)
  When an mDNS client needs to resolve a hostname, it sends an IP 
  multicast query message that asks the host having that name to 
  identify itself. That target machine then multicasts a message that 
  includes its IP address. All machines in that subnet can then use that 
  information to update their mDNS caches. 
  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS)
Network Discovery
  This feature allows this computer to discover other devices and be 
  discovered by other devices on the network. (Uses Function Discovery 
  Host and Publication Services, UPnP, SSDP, NetBIOS and LLMNR)

I mentioned the Function Discovery services, and UPnP, but neglected the
SSDP, Netbios, and LLMNR services mentioned in the description of the
Network Discovery app allowed in the firewall.

But that's not what you said above, ie it's different from "Computer 
Browser is a legacy service for SMB 1.0", so this looks like an attempt 
to move the goalposts.

Not necessarily SMBv1, it works with SMBv2 also.

Whether or not you think it is needed, and whether or not it is in fact 
actually needed, the Computer Browser service is not his problem, 
because anyway he's already demonstrated that it's running correctly!

We'll know what method of discovery is being used after he brings the 
relevant Explorer column into view, until then, it's probably best not 
to overwhelm him with long spools of possibly irrelevant information.

From what I've read, Computer Browser uses SMBv1.  That's why you have
to go to optionalfeatures.exe to install SMBv1.  When you install SMBv1
then you also get Computer Browser.

Since I did *not* install SMBv1, Computer Browser won't show up, so no
way to check its dependencies.  They're bundled together.

Legacy.  Not installed by default.  Whatever.

Since you already knew, why did /YOU/ bring up Computer Browser?  I
clarified and expounded on what /YOU/ brought up.

Then you need to provide some sort of provenance, because IME this 
simply isn't true, see below ...

No, the point immediately above was that your understanding of the 
Computer Browser service is mistaken, and you appeared to be trying to 
disguise that by fudging the issue:

Google "What is the Computer Browser service in Windows" [my caps]:

<https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+the+computer+browser+service+in+windows>

"AI Overview

The Computer Browser service in Windows is responsible for allowing 
users to easily browse and locate shared resources on other computers 
within a network. It does this by aggregating information about 
available resources on a "Master Browser" and then having other 
computers query this Master Browser for the list of resources to display 
in Network Neighborhood or Windows Explorer.
Here's a more detailed explanation:

     Function:
     The service simplifies the process of finding and accessing shared 
files, printers, and other network resources.
     Master Browser:
     A designated computer (the Master Browser) maintains a list of 
available network resources.
     Browsing:
     Clients (other computers on the network) query the Master Browser 
to obtain the list of resources, which is then displayed in Network 
Neighborhood or Windows Explorer.
     Limited to Single Subnet:
     The service relies on broadcasting, so it is primarily effective 
within a single IP subnet.
     Legacy Service:
     WHILE STILL FUNCTIONAL, the Computer Browser service is a legacy 
feature, and Microsoft recommends using newer technologies like Network 
Discovery or WS-Discovery for more modern networks.
     Enabling:
     If the service is not enabled or running, you may not be able to 
see shared resources in Network Neighborhood or Windows Explorer. You 
can enable it through the Services tool in Windows."

So pretty much exactly as I described, and in particular no mention of 
any particular version of SaMBa.

> 
> Since you already knew, why did /YOU/ bring up Computer Browser?  I

At the time of my original post which first brought it up, the OP 
himself had already mentioned enabling "NetBIOS over TCP/IP", 
functionality which is supplied by the Computer Browser service which 
therefore is why I mentioned it, and we did NOT know that problem PC's 
Computer Browser service was running correctly until his own reply to me 
made clear that it was.  However, you posted your confusing and 
misleading splurge well AFTER the OP had replied, so, filled as it was 
with a fair amount of erroneous and a great deal of irrelevant detail, 
your post was just unnecessarily confusing and misleading, and I doubt 
it helped him at all.

See Message-ID: <o1c7v4t31x1a.dlg@v.nguard.lh> where I cited Microsoft's
statement, which was, again:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/file-server/troubleshoot/smbv1-not-installed-by-default-in-windows

"Because the Computer Browser service relies on SMBv1, the service is
uninstalled if the SMBv1 client or server is uninstalled."

I rarely use Google's search anymore.  Instead I use Startpage which
uses Google Search but anonymizes me to Google's server:

https://www.startpage.com/sp/search?query=microsoft+smbv1+computer+browser+bundle

2nd search hit found the above MS article.  The first hit was:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/file-server/troubleshoot/detect-enable-and-disable-smbv1-v2-v3

which is where I found and reported the Powershell commands to determine
which SMB version were installed.

So, do you or do you not have SMBv1 installed?  Did you check?  Is
Computer Browser still available after you uninstall SMBv1 (save an
image backup beforehand to undo the uninstall should a later install
fail)?  You keep saying any SMB version results in the presence of
Computer Browser, but that is very likely because you've had SMBv1
installed since forever.  So, you've had SMBv1 and SMBv2 installed, saw
you had Computer Browser, but never actually verified if Computer
Browser survives if you do *not* have SMBv1 installed.  I do not have
SMBv1 installed, and why I do not have Computer Browser.  My experience
matches up with what Microsoft stated.

optionalfeatures.exe
Uncheck "SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support" to uninstall.
Restart Windows.
Is Computer Browser still available?

So, Google's AI search mentions "legacy", but you take issue when I said
legacy.

Where in the AI's aggregate content (for which it never cites sources)
did it mention on which SMB version the Computer Browser service relies,
or even mention SMB?

Have you not yet had to report erroneous or missing information spewed
out by Google's AI?  Since getting foisted on me by their AI (when I've
used Google's search which is not often nowadays), I've had to
repeatedly report missing information, incorrect information, or
misinformation.  Since it doesn't cite sources, I cannot verify from
where it extracted the information it presents.  Depends on where their
AI collects its information, er, blurb.  Many articles about Computer
Browser never mention SMB.

Even you declare SMB is necessary for Computer Browser, but Google's AI
makes no mention of SMB.  Don't expect their AI to be comprehensive.

When looking in services.msc, I'd like to see what description it shows
you for the Computer Browser service.  You sure it says "SMBv2"?  Does
it even mention SMB?  When looking at the details of the Computer
Browser service (double-click on it), copy the Description field.  I
cannot look, because Computer Browser is not installed, because SMBv1 is
not installed in my Win10 setup.  Under the Dependencies tab for
Computer Browser, and after expanding all tree nodes, take a screen pic
of the window to show the Dependencies list.  I'd like to see it saying
which version of SMB is required.

See my reply there.  I understand now why you wrote that the Computer 
Browser service relies upon SMBv1, having found MS documentation to that 
effect you are bound to go with it, but that documentation doesn't match 
my own actual experience, and I'm bound to go with that.  We'll just 
have to agree to disagree on this point, and concentrate instead on 
helping the OP with his issue.

> So, do you or do you not have SMBv1 installed?  

I've already told that you that currently I have SMBv1 enabled, to allow 
an XP PC to connect, but I've also already told you, somewhat by 
implication, that in the past I've had the Computer Browser service 
running without SMBv1 being enabled.

No, I took issue at your insistence that the Computer Browser service 
relies upon SMBv1, because I know that in the past I've had the service 
running on a machine where SMBv1 was disabled.

Ditto Microsoft's Documentation, which may be updated automatically by a 
Content Delivery System giving it recent dates without actually having 
been perused by a human being in many years, and even then, when it was 
last edited by a an actual human, he or she could simply have 
copy'n'pasted something from some piece of legacy documentation from the 
XP era without checking its actual veracity still holds true in more 
modern systems.

I never claimed it did, merely that on this PC the dependencies of its 
dependencies include both SMBv1 and SMBv2.  Further, under Server, the 
SMBv1 entry is itself dependent on SMBv2 (!), while under Workstation 
both are dependent on a generic "SMB MiniRedirector Wrapper and Engine", 
none of which suggest to me an absolute dependence on SMBv1.

The above was my 3rd attempt at a reply, because on the first attempt 
Thunderbird did its "connection into a black hole" trick when I tried to 
send, and, although the draft was there when I closed it, when I 
relaunched it, the draft had vanished.  On the second attempt my PC got 
into some sort of Control-key lock which I could only escape from by 
shutting down, and by the time of the above successful attempt I'd 
forgotten to include something important that had made it into the first 
two drafts ...

On the OP's problem W11 machine  -  as far as we know 'as supplied' 
except to enable "NetBIOS over TCP/IP", no mention of separately 
enabling SMBv1  -  the Computer Browser service on that PC was up and 
running.

I mentioned how to look at optional features to see if SMBv1 was
installed.

Message-ID: <m7jji6FiuinU6@mid.individual.net>

Fokke did not mention if he looked, or what he saw.  I'm pretty sure it
is installed for him.  Per other sources, SMBv1 and Computer Browser are
bundled together.

Which I dispute the veracity of.  We'll see if he follows your 
suggestion and clarifies the matter, but, either way, I don't think it 
helps with his problem, because the service is running anyway.

Even if SMBv1 is shown as installed in optionalfeatures.exe, there are 2
sub-options: SMBv1 client, and SMBv1 server.  Both need to be installed
for 2-way file sharing, and on both endpoints that are sharing.

WTF?  Your whole argument up to this point is that the Computer Browser 
service is legacy tech requiring SMBv1 (I dispute the SMBv1 requirement, 
but that doesn't matter on this particular point).  Meanwhile, he only 
needs SMBv1 if he has an old PC that cannot run SMBv2 or any of the 
other modern name calling options.  From what he has told us about his 
network, that is not the case here, so why are you now suggesting that 
he should enable SMBv1, when, by your own previous claims, Computer 
Browser has no real relevance to W11 and isn't even installed by 
default, and anyway he's already proved that the service is apparently 
working satisfactorily?

Then you should have no problems after uninstalling SMBv1.  You'll
temporarily lose the XP host, but you would be testing with your other
hosts that your assertion that Computer Browser can use SMBv2.  Then
reinstall SMBv1.

I'm not going to f*k around with the configuration of any of my PCs at 
your behest, not least because, even if I did, I couldn't be sure that 
you would believe me anyway  -  after all you haven't so far, despite my 
explaining to you ...

1) The dependencies for the Computer Browser service on this PC;

2) That in the past that I have run a PC with SMBv1 disabled and had the 
Computer Browser service on it running;

3) Pointing out that we both know of a W11 PC that has the Computer 
Browser service running on it with no known configuration change other 
than to enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.

So I think it's much more likely that, instead of believing anything I'd 
write, merely you'd find another excuse to continue an increasingly 
pointless argument!

How would I check if SMBv1 ia installed?

- Run: optionalfeatures.exe
- Enable "SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support".
    o Check both client and server sub-options are selected.
- Reboot.

If "SMB 1.0/CIFS" was already selected, you already have SMBv1.

I did. Both client and server were not selected. I selected them and 
deselected SMB delete ...
After a reboot there was still no access to the laptop.

As expected ...

...?

Again as expected I'm afraid, but at least it means we don't have to 
chase VanguardLH's ghost non-problem any more*.

* Although I did think there was a faint chance that selecting SMBv1, 
and rebooting, might make a difference to the problem, and then the 
question would have been did the difference remain after deselecting it, 
and rebooting?  My reasoning was that if there was some misconfiguration 
of NetBIOS or the like, forcing a reinstallation might fix the 
misconfiguration as a side-effect, and then we would have had to prove 
whether the fix remained after deselection, whether or not actually it 
had been SMBv1 as such that had been the issue.  Thankfully though, we 
don't have to argue about that.

While the results from the network discovery method described elsewhere 
in the thread might still be interesting, and also it's possible it's a 
firewall or AV issue as others have suggested, or even an actual virus, 
I'm beginning to think that the only way of nailing it is going to be a 
close comparison between the two identical W11 PCs, setting by setting, 
service by service, running process by running process.  It's very 
tedious doing that, but often it works when all else fails.

There were 3 options. One of them was selected, and it was something 
like Delete SMB 'and something'. I deselected it and selected the other two.
