P.S. If you made it this far and are wondering what wsdd2/WS-Discovery is all about: broke discovery of LAN devices when deprecating .

WS-Discovery is their attempt to "fix" this, and is basically a competitor to / / (why couldn't MS have just used that?).

Unfortunately it means only devices implementing WS-Discovery are visible in Windows 10/11's network browser.

Fortunately there's a utility named that implements WS-Discovery on Linux.
