Problem
One Windows 10 home computer cannot remote desktop or access shares on the other.
Network
Symptoms
RDP Error on HomeA (this occurs whether I use name or IP number):
Remote Desktop can’t find the remote computer “HomeB”. This might mean that “HomeB” does not belong to the specified network. Verify the computer name and domain that you are trying to connect to.
Attempting to view a share on HomeB from HomeA results in error:
You do not have permission to access \\HomeB\temp. Contact your network administrator to request access.
Macbook can RDP to both HomeA and HomeB
- HomeA can RDP to Office
From HomeA,
Test-NetConnection -ComputerName HomeB -Port 3389

Network Neighborhood shows both HomeA and HomeB (on both)
Both machines share c:\temp with all authenticated users
a. HomeB can see and access share on HomeA
b. HomeA can see but not access share on HomeB
c. Using the command, net use \HomeB\temp /user:HomeB\user gives:Multiple connections to a server or share resource by the same user…
“net use” shows no connections to HomeB

b. Both have the same password
c. HomeA\user is linked to a Microsoft account; HomeB\user is not
d. Windows credentials has no stored passwords for the target machine- Firewall

It appears to be an authentication issue on HomeB but I can't figure out why.
What am I missing?
