Win 10 PC access to Time Capsule Disk

When I was using my Airport Time Capsule as a router I could access it's disk with the file manager on my Win 10 PC. I recently started using a different router and set my Airport to Wireless Network Mode-Off and Network Router Mode-Off(Bridge Mode). Since I did that I am unable to access the disk. My Airport shows up in File Manager

However, when I click on it I get this window

The name is correct.

I've tried the Diagnose but that doesn't help.

I used this to transfer files between my IMAC and my PC.

I sure would like to use it again.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

AirPort Time Capsule 802.11ac, Windows 10, null

Open a command window and ping the address.. if it responds then you have to turn SMB1 back on.

See how te re-enable SMB1 in windows1o

IMHO.. it means using the TC as intermediate between mac and windows is now not a great idea.. there is no reason over the network you cannot directly connect windows to Mac using SMB2 or higher.

SMB1 was used by wannacry ransomware.. it is a bad idea to turn it on permanently.
