The plugin doesn't create the shares. These have to be shared in Windows.

Actually the plugin has a "create share" button and it does also create the shares.



HOWEVER it failed to set ANY permissions on the shares which meant that they could not be accessed! So thanks for making me look into the share details!
I will need to test this once I get back from work.

If this turns out to be the cause of my problem, then it would be wise to to have the Kodi plugin tell the user that it can't access the share.
