I think the basic issue is that SMB v1 was providing browsing service as well as folder/file access and now Windows10 uses a different service for browsing. So Kodi can't browse shared folders using SMB and instead you have to type in the server\folder name. But Windows will do the name resolution for the server name to IP address.
