      @IRJ That's odd my Microsoft account is one with a custom domain. Not sure if it is because it is an older account or now.

      I think you can use Gmail to make a Microsoft account, too.

        @IRJ , at the logon screen, it shows [email protected]. I'm not home to pull it up at the moment, but I'm about 99% sure it's a Microsoft account.

        How did you send the screenshots?

              That doesn't prove anything yet. Go to user accounts in the control panel

                    AJ, have you tried pinging the machine first? Are you sure Windows 8.1's firewall is open to allow filesharing?

                      Tried going to the Administrators group and adding [email protected], which resolved to my local ajstringham user. Got this.

                          That's not what I asked you to do. Try adding it the account itself. Don't worry about the group as a whole yet.

                                It's establishing the network connection. It's just not taking credentials.

                                    Maybe it's this.

                                    You might have to change it to the second option.
