Windows 10: Unable to connect to remote machine using SMB 1.0

For many years I have been able to create a network share for a remote disk running on a linux system a Humax HDR Fox T2 PVR. This only supports SMB 1.0 so I have enabled SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support - Client via Turn Windows features on or off.


This has been working well on my Windows 10 Pro system but has recently started to fail with

The device or resource HUMAX is not set up to accept connections on port "The File and printer sharing SMB".


I am still able to connect to the disk from another Win 10 Home PC and from my phone and have checked that Samba is running on the Humax.


Apart from routine Windows updates I am not aware of any changes on PC or Humax likely to affect networking.


Any advice on how to solve this problem would be gratefully received.


The detailed diagnostics report shows




Very unhelpfully the diagnosis log does not automatically open in the event viewer or give any clue as to its location :

I am not sure how to interpret the event viewer output

uninstall remote desktop connection on windows 10


That usually means one of the two things:

1. The incoming remote connections are not enabled on remote host, the machine you are trying to connect to
   -- OR --
2. The remote host is not available in network

Check that your VirtualBox guests (remote hosts) are set to accept incoming remote connections, and that they are visible / available in your network.

• VM is Windows-10 Professional 64.
• In VM allowed Remote Desktop Connections.
• From server successfully connected to VM via RDM.
• Closed RDM connection. Unable to access VM.
• Turned off VM from Hyper-V Manager.
• Attempted to restart VM, unable to connect via Hyper-V from message box the following is displayed:
  
  Video Remoting was disconnected. The virtual maching is currently using the Remote X 3D video adapter. A user is currently connected via Remote Desktop Connect to the virtual machine by using Remote Desktop Connection.
• Connected via Remote Desktop Connection. Attempted to turn off allowing Remote Desktop Connection. VM hung.
• VM Wouldn't turn off via Hyper-V manager.
• Shutdown host system and rebooted.

Some additional help because you mentioned you are a remote newbie *Wink. The windows 7 related tutorials from our sister site the Seven Forums:

1. On Windows 7 desktop, set network location to either Home or Work (I recommend Work):

2. On Windows 7 desktop, allow incoming remote connections:
   • Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) - Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
3. On Windows 7 desktop, find out its IP address:
   • IP Address - Locate and Find for Your Computer - Windows 7 Help Forums
4. On Windows 10 laptop, start the Remote Desktop application and connect to the Windows 7 desktop using the IP address from step 3 above (see Part Three in the tutorial):
   • RDC - Connect Remotely to your Windows 10 PC - Windows 10 Forums
