I'm using Debian 8.9 and it is up to date. When I want to browse Windows shared folders then I got an error about "Failed to retrieve share list from server...". How can I solve it?

Thank you.

How exactly are you trying to access your files? A quick and easy solution would be to install samba on your debian box. A samba server is capable of seeing all available linux and windows shared folders provided that you have set it up accordingly.

From my point of view, when windows machines are involved, using samba is extremely conventient. I am afraid this is all i can do since you provide nothing but a vague screenshot.

so you still do not provide enough information, however you saved this bit:hack3rcon wrote:when I installed WannaCry patch on Windows Server then this problem happened.
- that really would've belonged in post #1, in bold and with lots of additional information - for post #11?
