The Time Capsule uses older SMB1 communication protocols, which are not all that secure by today's standards. For security reasons, Microsoft disabled SMB1 in Windows 10.


You might be able to temporarily enable SMB1 on your PC to allow short term access to the Time Capsule by searching for articles like "enable smb1 on Windows 10". For example:
