SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support (Windows Features)

[Guest Towndrunk]

We have a large amount of computers running Windows 10 x64 Pro on a domain, that have the SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support option disabled after a recent update. The issue is that we have some older Ricoh Copier/Scanners at our location that scan to a shared folder, and need this option enabled to complete their scans.

 

 

If I go in to each computer that has the issue, "Turn Windows features on or off", and Enable SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support the issue is resolved after a reboot. I was just wondering if there is a way to turn this on, or enable it, with Group Policy so that we don't have to do it for every computer. I have seen various was to disable it, however I wasn't sure if there was a way to enable it. I don't see an easy way to reverse the various ways listed to disable it either. Thanks.
