We've got several systems on our house network, well firewalled from the outside world. Some of them are mostly shared storage, and are set up as network drives under windows. Everything works pretty seamlessly.
Till about an hour ago. For some reason, Windows 10 on this machine stopped recognizing one of our storage servers by it's alias. Refreshing the network locally didn't help. I can still connect to it via IP, though, so I keep working. Except it now constantly pops up "these files might be harmful" warnings - in error, I might add.
Solution was here, originally for Win 7. Basically I had to force Win10 to recognize that IP address as part of the trusted network, even though it *was* recognizing it as such until it spontaneously determined that it wasn't, somehow. It's that latter part that seems to be new to Win 10.
Oh, and the "learn more" link on that warning that kept popping up? All it gave me was a Bing search for how to find help for windows, generic. Most helpful.
You can also quit bugging me to "Try Office 365 for a month!" That ship is long sailed, and when I have time I'll see about exorcising that bit of nagware.
