Windows 10 version 1803 BRICK release notes
Here’s a rephrased version of your message:
Where to begin? The latest update has caused some systems to fail and disrupted many home and small business networks. My setup was affected too! This update has eliminated the homegroup feature, which is useful for file sharing and networking. You can find more details at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows...d-features. Although I didn’t rely on homegroup, I lost the ability to connect and share drives or files between PCs. Even after trying fixes, I couldn’t reach my computers, folders, or drives through the network interface. The network settings now appear empty, and the sharing options seem inactive. After checking individual drives, folders, and adjusting permissions for full access, I still can’t connect to the network. Microsoft appears to be encouraging users to adopt their cloud services with this update. Many computers have become unusable, and the changes in file sharing settings have made it nearly impossible to restore access, even from the original device. They claim that using built-in Windows features can replace homegroup, but this isn’t working for me without relying on cloud or email. I’m looking for a workaround—any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Missed uploading the site with the latest update notes. Here’s the link you provided: https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-1...-and-fixes
Have you explored using the command line to set up a share? I’m confident your device still has an IP address, so that should be fine—look for the "net share" utility. If you don’t have a Windows machine nearby, I can provide a more detailed explanation.
I use a VPN and still have TunnelBear. I purchased the yearly plan before things changed, but the Invisibility feature isn’t visible. After checking "services.msc" for services that were disabled during the update, I managed to show PC and shared folders on other devices. Now I can’t access them from any computer. I’m open to a more detailed guide if you have time—just let me know. I’m new to this and not trying to be an expert. Thanks for your help!
