Thank you, it worked by indicating the full address of the folder, without going through "browse".

However, I was forced to create a password for my Windows account, but that's okay.

Thank you again for your help.

Good morning all,

(Excuse me if my English is not correct, I translate French with Google Translate)

I just bought a Raspberry Pi 4 to make it a media center with LibreELEC.

On LibreELEC, I would like to have access to the "VIDEOS" folder on my PC running Windows 7 family edition ... but it doesn't work!

When I want to add a source, I click on "Browse / Windows Network (SMB) / WORKGROUP / LW-PC (it's me!)… And there I have a Error window that says" Invalid argument "

The Raspberry is wired, and I can access the Raspberry from my PC, but not the other way around.

My Android tablet can access the PC and shared folders ... while LibreELEC does not even access the PC.

On Windows 7, I already disabled password protected sharing.

I tried other solutions like disabling SMBv1 on Windows, ... it didn't change anything.

Some details on the current LibreELEC settings:

Active wired network

Activate SAMBA: YES

Name of the working group: WORKGROUP (like the PC)

Use password authentication for Samba: NO

Minimum protocol supported: SMB2

Maximum supported protocol: SMB3

Can you help me please ?

(Last very essential point, I am a total beginner!)

Thank you in advance for your help, and good Sunday to you.

Julien
