In my small inhouse (W)LAN I have 2 Win 10 computers and 2 Win 7 computers.

When I click on "Network" in Win 7 Windows Explorer (F5 refresh) then the WIn 7 computers can see all Win 10 computers.

When I do the same refresh in File Explorer of Win 10 systems then the Win 7 systems are NOT visible.

Why?

Even more strange: When I perform an IP-Scan from Win10 computers, then the remote Win 7 computers ARE visible.

Whats wrong?

How can I force Win 10 File Explorer to list WIn 7 computer nodes in (W)LAN?

Are network discovery services incompatible?
