I can not connect my local machine with a file container

Hello

When creating a file container and accessing it from a virtual machine with the connection script using PowerShell to use it as a disk drive is fine, this does not work for me from my personal laptop or from my work laptop, it does not arrive through the network, is this normal to happen or does it have a solution?

I've tried disabling firewalls on my laptop and router and natching port 445 on my router and it doesn't seem to go that way.

Thank you very much for your help,

Best regards

    Sometimes, antivirus or security software can block network access. Temporarily disable any antivirus or security software on your laptops and see if you can access the file container.

    If SMB is not working, you can try using other protocols like NFS or FTP to access the file container.

    Check Network, Router configurations. Update Network driver.
