Try installing the cifs-utils package

sudo apt install cifs-utils

maybe those are missing?

The cable company supplied me with a new router a couple of weeks ago. The ip address have changed. My win 7 box is 10.0.0.251 and my Debian box is 10.0.0.133.
When I put in ip a it does come back as 10.0.0.133

I installed cifs-utils and seems to be no change in opening network drives.

Let's try a manual mount then.

Code:
sudo mkdir /mnt/winshare sudo mount -v -t cifs -o vers=2.1,username=YOURWINUSER,password=VERYSECRET //10.0.0.251/Users /mnt/winshare

if no error check if there is something in there

ls /mnt/winshare

You might need to change //10.0.0.251/Users to a directory you're sharing on the win box. I used Users to test for mine which worked, if you get an error try to change Users to c$ C$ or whatever is shared :D

When I run Is/mnt/winshare I get
Default desktop.ini Guest Public

I am not very good using Linux system and I am confused trying to understand your next instructions
