issues connecting to shares on my ONE machine still running windows 8.1 I got a breakthrough :)
TMI to write but I finally got the SAMBA configuration right .
sudo apt install samba
goto /etc/samba and edit smb.conf with your favorite editor ( mine is notepadqq :))
goto the [global] section ( the first ) and insert this under it
[global]

# Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
workgroup = WORKGROUP
lanman auth = yes
ntlm auth = yes
client min protocol = NT1
client max protocol = SMB3
then reboot and connect ..
Thats it :)
