    Fix for the issue

    This is the final fix for the issue incase anyone else comes here looking to fix this same issue:

    Step 1: Enable Network Discovery


    Network and Sharing Centre -> Changed advanced sharing settings -> Under your current profile: Turn on network discovery

    Step 2: Turn on file and print sharing


    Network and Sharing Centre -> Changed advanced sharing settings -> Under your current profile: Turn on file and print sharing

    Step 3: Check the firewall

    Control Panel -> Windows Firewall -> Turn Windows Firewall on or off -> Turn off Windows firewall

    If this resolves your issue please see instructions here for how to enable Network Discovery Firewall Rules: http://blogs.technet.com/b/networki...ling-network-discovery-network-resources.aspx This shows you the ports needed, however you will need to enable them instead of disable them.

    Step 4: Check the services are running

    In powershell run the following command:

    Get-Service -Include SSDPSRV, upnphost, FDResPub

    If any of these services return as stopped, make a note of the service run the following command

    start-service <Enter service name>; Set-Service -Name <Enter Service Name> -StartupType Automatic

    Hope this helps

    DT.
