Your router may have a USB 3.0 port that can be used as a network share.

This allows other devices on your network to access files located on a Network Storage Device.

The image below shows a router with a USB port on the back side.

I was able to set up access to the share on my main Windows 10 rig, my Windows 10 laptops, but NOT on my other Windows 10 box. While setting up the share on that box, Windows say's that it can't find that folder on my network.

After researching and trouble shooting I finally found the solution to my problem. Hopefully, this can help other people with similar issues.

You'll need to make sure that you have the correct "Windows Services" running and "SMB" (System Message Block) Windows Features installed.

After that, you'll need to set up the shares, in which this tutorial will guide you how.
