Showing Network Device works only on 2 out of 3 PCs
I have 3 PCs they are all on the same home network. If I click on the network in Total Commander in 2 of the 3 PCs, I see all of my devices. On the third PC , when click on networking icon I do not see all of my devices. For example the third PC does not "see" one of my PCs (but if I go to Windows explorer which also does not see the same PC but I put in the path the PC is found and I can see the files).
Please tell me how to get Total Commander to see the PC (and if possible tell me why Windows Explorer also does not see the pc).

Re: Going to Network Device
Is the setting for NetHoodStyle (if present) the same in the wincmd.ini of all your 3 PC's?

Re: Showing Network Device works only on 2 out of 3 PCs
I think that this is the original problem, Windows can't see the PC and then Total Commander can't either. So if the problem is solved in Windows, it will be solved in Total Commander also.Please tell me how to get Total Commander to see the PC (and if possible tell me why Windows Explorer also does not see the pc).
Have you checked in Network and sharing center (Control Panel) that the network type is "Home Network"? and that they are connected to the same Workgroup?
Re: Showing Network Device works only on 2 out of 3 PCs
My network is shown as "Private" and they are all on the "Workgroup".
I have done a lot of investigation since I originally posted. It appears that the problem is due to the Windows network issue with the latest update . So at this point I would like to know if there is a way to add a tab within Total Commander and have the tab use a manually typed in path. File Explorer does not see the other PC but if I manually put in the path it gets there with no problem. So I would like to be able to do same in Total Commander.
Thanks

You have multiple options to work around the issue:

You have multiple options to work around the issue:
- Directory hotlist (Ctrl+D) with the command cd \\server\share
- The same as above but as button in the button bar
- Shift+F6 (when the cursor is on [..]-item) or 2 slow mouse clicks on the path bar (above the column headers) to enable path edit mode to be able to type the new path
- the command cd \\server\share in TC's command line

The two backslashes before the server specification are not a typo and the "server" and "share" parts must be replaced with the actual computer and share name respectively! Example: Let's say your other system's name is "home-pc" and your share is named "private" the complete command would beAlso note the space after the "cd".

Re: Showing Network Device works only on 2 out of 3 PCs
Thanks, My PC# 1 (which I am using to set the command) is NEILTABLET and the login name is neil) the PC#2 which I am try to see from PC #1 is (name is HPENY and login name is Neil), So I have the command as " cd \\hpenvy\neil" ( and there is a space after the cd). But my path is still a problem. I want it to go to "C:\Users\Neil\Documents" so that is what I have put in for the target path but I get an error message "Drive not found"
Please help again
Please help again
Re: Showing Network Device works only on 2 out of 3 PCs
Have you tried "cd \\hpeny\c$\users\neil\documents" (without the quotes)? It should work if neil is an administrator in HPENY pc.

A share name is NOT a login name! The share is something you probably created at some point in the past when you shared some directory on your PC. The login name is used later when trying to access that share.
