Seems Linux has a similar issue. Ive used Samba to share files with Windows computers.

SMB1 (Server Message Block) vulnerability. . .

If I found that I needed SMB1 for some software, I'd create a pair of shortcuts: one to disable SMB1 and another to enable it. That way, with a simple mouse-click, I could select my system's behaviour.

The Registry Key controlling (disabling) SMB1 availability:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters]
"SMB1"=dword:00000000

The Registry Key to enable SMB1 availability:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters]
"SMB1"=dword:00000001

When making the Disabling shortcut, the command to put into the Location box would be. . .

REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters" /v SMB1 /T REG_DWORD /D 0 /F

Change the data value (the /D 0 part) to 1 for creating the enabling shortcut.

Don't forget to click the Advanced button and select the "Run as Administrator" option.

Cheers, PW.
