On the Windows 10 computer you may want to go to "add/remove windows features" and turn on SMB/CIFS 1.0

[@markpage2779]

I was going to suggest that as well. Works on XP

[@macyler]

And then make sure to turn it back off when done. There are serious vulnerabilities in old SMB versions.

[@KaitoTriforce]

The machines can see each other because of NetBios, but File Shares for Windows 9x only support SMB 1, which is disabled in newer Versions of Windows 10. But there are further problems, because Window 9x also uses old NTLM-Logins with very weak encryption, which are also blocked by default. The easiest way would be to just use a FTP-Server like FileZilla Server or just use the Raspberry Pi. (Windows never had a modern/secure FTP-Client/-Server, even Windows 10 doesn't support encrypted connections. So there are no compatibility issues.) TFTP would also be a good alternative solution.

[@DOSdaze]

This is correct; I still transfer files between my Windows 3.11 and 95 machines over SMB 1.0 to Windows 10. Also, I find it easier to just set static IPs and refer to those on the network rather than relying on netbios to find the host names.

[@espertalhao041]

On the control panel, you probably need to switch to the old encryption used for the network shares. Also, the printer probably didn't recognize the card because it is formatted in ex-FAT by default. If you try to format in FAT32, it should probably show on the network share.

[@woodenotaku]

About that network transfer stuff: the version of file sharing used by Windows 98 is a bit crap. Following limitations apply: It is SMBv1 only, whereas latest version of SMB is 3. Also all usernames and passwords must be set to the current user on the 98 system. Unfortunately Microsoft removes SMBv1 support in the latest versions of Windows 10. Remember WannaCry? That was a bug in SMBv1. So how can you transfer files via Windows File Sharing to/from a 98 PC? Use either Linux/BSD or Windows 7 at the other end. Or make an FTP server instead.

[@Root3264]

Could it be, that you'd have to activate smb 1.0 in Windows features on windows 10 to make the 98's drive visible?

This. But smb v1 is turned off by default in newer systems for a reason. An EternalBlue one, namely

Accessing Win98 network shares on Win10 works absolutely fine! However, you have to manually enable samba version 1.0 in Win10 again for it to show up.

[@MattiasMagnusson]

The reason you are not able to browse the newer pc on the network is because a SMB version difference, you can actually allow older SMB protocols in Windows 10 trough add/remove features. That way you should be allowed to browse the computer from the Windows 98 pc.

[@leonidas14775]

Windows file sharing works when it wants to. I'd go with FTP since its easy to find old versions of filezilla, and you don't have to worry about the Eternalblue vulnerability with leaving SMBv1 enabled.

[@kotoriminami8296]

[@ifur]

Newer windowses use SMBv2 and above, you should be adding SMBv1 through "Add or remove Windows Features" secondly change your network share settings on the newer machine to "Enable file sharing for devices use 40- or 56bit encryption". The reason that it worked on your router because somehow manufacturers delay the switch to new standards on SMB

When accessing shared folders on the 98 PC or vice versa, make sure its set to 48bit without a password and instead of clicking the computer through the network list, directly put the full path in. Example: \\98-pc\share or \\10-pc\share It only seems to work that way for some reason, dunno why

[@JoelLonganecker]

I was kind of hoping you were going to edit the video in windows 98, lol.

[@henry9174]

To do networking between win9x and win10, you will run "optionalfeatures.exe" and enable "SMB 1.0/CIFS file sharing support". Only then you could access your win9x share folder from your win10 machine. This does not work the other way around since win9x fails to prompt user login window, thus win10 doesn't allow access.

[@alexanrsousa]

Retro networking tip: Windows 98's version of SMB is 1.0, and that was deprecated and disabled by default in the latest versions of Windows because it is insecure. Getting Filezilla and creating a little FTP server that you can start on demand is just much easier, and you can even transfer files to/from a DOS machine with packet drivers and mTCP painlessly.

[@SloppyPuppy]

ofc if ur gonna transfer anything to old hardware then use old software.. ftp for the win.

[@jitgoinham]

im really liking this editing and new style! great video!

[@Straycatstrat10]

So, from my personal experience as I have a Windows 98 machine on my local network as well, you have to actually type in the IP address of the computer instead of the name as viewed by the network. I've also found that sometimes Windows 10 doesn't like the connection and will refuse to make it, but if you ping it, Windows 10 will then allow you to connect. You can't connect to Windows 10 from 98, but you can connect to 98 from 10...for file transfer that is, even if both folders are open for public read/write.

There's an unofficial USB driver for Win98 that lets you plug in any USB flash drive into your PC. It works with my modern USB 3.0 flash drive. And when you share folders between Windows 10 and Windows XP or older, you should enable SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support in Windows 10 for client and server.

I used to watch and rate KZbin videos on a Win 98 SE computer (because I was slow to update to Win XP). The only reason why it wouldn't work to upload directly from the Windows 98 computer (without Browservice) is that browsers for Win 98 haven't been updated in years. However, I wouldn't be surprised if some clever person found a way around that and managed to upload a video.

The network issues are probably because Win98 uses SMB1.0 as its sharing protocol, which is disabled by default in Win10 due to security concerns. This will cause issues regardless of which OS hosts the share. Enabling SMB1.0 in Win10 has solved the same issue for me.

[@TheCreatorOfStuff]

The best way to make a USB drive work on an old OS is if the BIOS supports "legacy USB" or anything along those lines. You have to boot the PC with the drive already in it but you can access it under basically any OS even an unmodified install of standalone DOS Also 9x windows versions are more or less incompatible with NT network shares except maybe I think in the case of windows 2000 and 2003 server. If you created an FTP share it would have worked There are ways around that block. It may require quite a bit of tinkering but you can likely fake the user agent data that is sent from browservice to KZbin

Easiest way for me to transfer files between modern and legacy machines is with FTP. Serve an FTP service on the modern PC and connect to it on legacy machine either using the web browser or an FTP client. Used this to transfer Printshop Deluxe pictures from Mac OS 7 to Windows 10.
