Some things I've done:
- created matching accounts, with identical usernames and passwords on both systems.
- enabled SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support on the new system (SMB 1.0/CIFS Client)
- enabled remote desktop on both my OLD and NEW systems and have connected that way.
- tried accessing my NEW system files through explorer... \\Leon-2ndT570 in address. I get the following: Windows cannot find \\Leon-2ndT570 Check the spelling and try again, or try searching for the item by clicking on the Start button and then clicking Search
