"failed to retrieve share list from server: No Such File or directory" while trying to access windows shares
Well, first install samba smb from package manager.
And open nautilus, choose connect to server from files. In the box that'll sow up, write your Windows machine IP in Server box, choose any port (21 by default) and from the drop down list that is Public FTP by default, choose Windows Share, some other input boxes will show up, but don't mind them and don't change anything, just press connect and there you have it.
