Windows 10 machine's workgroup is WORKGROUP, and so is MBP's: Since Sierra (now on High Sierra, hoping it'd fix but didn't), I haven't been able to access at all, always with the following error with text There was a problem connecting to the server: Prior to installing Sierra, had no problems accessing share.

I am doing this on a mac with macOS Mojave 10.14.6 installed. If that is not the case then I probably do the same a you. ![]() Apple does not take into consideration that you want to download the installer and then install it on another older compatible mac. The reason I ask is that any mac that came preinstalled with a newer OS than High Sierra will not be allowed to download High Sierra or any older OS. Mike you are trying to download High Sierra to your MacBook Pro, did this MacBook Pro come preinstalled with Mojave or Catalina. ![]()
