    Creating SMB Scan to File on Windows computers

    Hey Troops,

    With all the posts regarding Windows SMB not working lately (Thanks a BUNCH Microsoft!!), I was reminded of a step-by-step walkthrough I created for new techs on how to configure SMB Scan to File on a Windows computer..... Take notes kids, it's not for the squeamish!!

    Hello

    There an update for this issue , you can download it from microsoft (KB4480970), after the installation check if the shared folder is still shared.

      Wow... Your notes are...thorough. Good job.[emoji1308]

      Well first things first. The new windows OS has SMBv1 disabled, and only has SMBv2 enabled.

      Does your copier use SMBv2? Or SMBv1?

        Yeah... I have a tendency to OVER "Man-splain" sometimes...LOL!!

        I did neglect to add a note to make sure the network connection was configured for "NetBIOS over TCP/IP". Micro$oft has decided to default everything to "NetBIOS over DHCP", and that doesn't play well with SMB scanning. It also wreaks havoc on Network Discovery too.
