Laptop invisible on network

[rondon9898 84]

Hi folks,

I have a problem on my laptop which is causing me problems in my networked setup as I cannot point my AS16 application to my P3D files on the computer. I can access the PC’s files manually from my laptop if I type \\COMPUTER NAME into Windows Explorer but it doesn’t automatically appear in my laptop ‘network’ screen in Windows Explorer (interestingly my laptop appears automatically on my PC). This means I can’t select my shared P3D files on my PC through the AS16 setup. I’ve set my Windows hosts file, done all the necessary network sharing things and made sure the various services involved are running and in ‘automatic’. Is there anything else you can suggest?

thanks chaps
