Error 0x80070035 when trying to access kubuntu with Win10 - until it works again

[evodoc]

So I have a PC with Kubuntu installed with a shared folder and printer. I don't have problems accessing the printer through sharing but accessing the folder is... problematic. When I enter \\kubuntu or \\kubuntu\sharedfoldername in the windows explorer address bar I get an error 0x80070035. But after a couple of retries it starts working... for a couple hours. Then the issue returns. What might be the cause for this? I'm quite a beginner with linux.

I think it's more a Windows problem and I'm not very talented in Windows. I found this however, skimmed through it and it seems that there can be several reasons for this.
But guess as a novice is that Linux and Windows handle files (read/write) different due to different file systems, thus make it harder for Windows installs.

Windows. That's the problem!

Do you actually *need* to keep windows around? Over the decades I've heard that it does not like to play nicely with Linux, though it can be forced to work. But why force anything? If you don't really NEED it, why not get rid of it? I *only* use Linux and always have...well, before it was invented I used other UNIX-variants, including UNIX.

You didn't say how these folders were formatted. https://www.howtogeek.com/112888/3-w...-from-windows/

Thank you for the responses, right now I tried to set the service "TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper" startup to automatic on my Windows computer. So far no error messages, let's hope it stays that way!
