I've set up Samba on my virtual machine and can perfectly access it through my Mac. However, when I try to access it through my Windows 10 installation by adding the following network location smb://192.168.x.x, I get:



"The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another"
I don't even know where to begin with this, as it's not saying much to help me troubleshoot. Any ideas?

Try accessing it this way via Windows Explorer or the search bar:



\192.168.x.x



You can also try this via the command line:



net use S: \192.168.x.x
