Some versions of Windows BY DESIGN cannot see other versions of Windows. It depends both on the OS (my father-in-law has a Win7 laptop and had an XP desktop) and connecting between those two machines was one-way only - can't remember which.
Even the same version. I have Windows 10 on my notebook, along with Linux. It can share with my Linux desktop, but not a Windows 10 VM on that same computer. When that notebook is booted into Linux, Linux and the W10 VM on the notebook can access both Linux and the W10 VM on the desktop system. I have absolutely no idea why that's happening, where one W10 system can't share with another.
My W10 laptop sees my Linux server machine samba shares and can connect to them. But it does not see my Linux desktop, although it can connect to it if I type the "\\share_IP\path". So it is a windows name "resolution" issue. My Windows 10 virtual machine hosted on the desktop does not see the desktop by name, but it can connect to a share by name if I type it in full (IP number not needed, name works). - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
