File sharing not working

I am trying to access files on one Mini on my home network from a second Mini. I have file sharing set up for access on the first iMini. When I try to access, for example, the Desktop from the second Mini, I get the following error message: The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “Desktop” can’t be found. I have OS Catalina installed on both computers. I did not have this problem with the previous versions of the OS. How do I fix?

Mac mini, macOS 10.15

You have to disable AFP file sharing and just share the computer using SMB since AFP file sharing cannot be used with the APFS file system. It's possible you may need to turn File Sharing off and back on after the changes or perhaps even reboot the host.
