This issue started a few days ago. Before that I was using the network for file sharing with no issues, and nothing changed that I'm aware of.

Both are on the same WiFi network, running Windows 10 Pro OS build 19043.1083, and are fully updated.

When I try to map a network drive I get error code: 0x80070035. I've tried everything I can find on Google, and nothing is working.

This is what I've tried so far:
Checked file sharing and discoverability settings
Reset TCP/IP
Set relevant services to auto and restarted them
Set registry entry AllowInsecureGuestAuth to 1
Installed Microsoft network client protocol
Tried to connect via Run using the IP
Deleted Windows credentials
Probably a few other things I've forgotten...

Edit: Okay, I've FINALLY managed to connect by just removing and re-adding the password on the one computer. Seems like it's just Microsoft being Microsoft. Thanks for the suggestions.

Try adding the IP address of the other PC to the hosts file
Ah, see I knew there were things I'd forgotten. Already did that. I also added the respective IP addresses to the firewall exceptions.
