The only caveat is that network discovery doesn\u2019t always work as expected, and sometimes, you may not be able to find any computer, or you may see some of them, but others might be missing.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the reason case might be, you can troubleshoot and resolve almost any problem with network discovery by making sure the feature is enabled, the required services and protocol are running, using the network troubleshooter, or reseting the networking stack on <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/windows-10\">Windows 10<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In this <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/how-to\">guide<\/a>, you&#8217;ll learn the steps to troubleshoot and fix network discovery on Windows 10.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"toc\">\n<li><a href=\"#fix_network_discovery_enable_feature_windows10\">Fix network discovery enabling feature<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fix_network_discovery_starting_services_windows10\">Fix network discovery starting required services<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fix_network_discovery_enable_smb_windows10\">Fix network discovery enabling SMB protocol<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fix_network_discovery_troubleshooter_windows10\">Fix network discovery using troubleshooter<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fix_network_discovery_reset_windows10\">Fix network discover resetting adapter<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"fix_network_discovery_enable_feature_windows10\">Fix network discovery enabling feature<\/h2>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t see any of the network devices in File Explorer, it&#8217;s probably because network discovery isn&#8217;t enabled.<\/p>\n<p>To enable network discovery with Control Panel, use these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p>Open <strong>Control Panel <\/strong>on Windows 10.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click on <strong>Network and Internet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click on <strong>Network and Sharing Center<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Click the <strong>Change advanced sharing settings<\/strong> option from the left pane.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_124783\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-124783\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/change-advanced-sharing-settings.jpg?resize=827%2C383&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Change advanced sharing settings\" width=\"827\" height=\"383\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Change advanced sharing settings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Expand the <strong>Private<\/strong> network profile.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Under the &#8220;Network discovery&#8221;
