Look, anyone who actually knows their way around a network should find this easy—how do I connect to a server from another machine on the same network?
The hardware setup is solid, cables and all, but I’m stuck on what to type into the address bar. I’ve attached a shot of how it looks on my old PC, but now that I've got this new one, I can't seem to locate the server (S:) at all.
Anyone got a clue?

The standard way is to just type "\\servername" into the search bar or the "Run" dialog. If you need to map a specific drive, you'd include that detail too, like: \\servername\c$

Yeah, that's all there is to it 👍
For anyone who actually knows, it's just a simple 🙂

Now it's asking for my username and password... who's actually going to remember that? 😵
