Problem Windows 10 Minecraft java.net.Connectexception

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to post your query in Mine craft forum.

You need to allow Java ("Java(TM) Platform SE binary") to communicate through the firewall.

I have the same issue. It didn't how up until I upgraded to Windows 10. Java is allowed through the firewall incoming and outgoing. I can connect to Internet Minecraft servers just not to the one I run on my own LAN. I've been running that server for nearly 3 years.

The Minecraft server is running on a box that runs Windows Home Server 2011. Nothing has changed on that box.

It's the same server I was running when I had Windows 7 on my desktops. Then I had no problems. I have three machines with this problem now.  

I can share files/folders etc from the box with the Minecraft server. I did have to leave and rejoin the Homegroup.

The only thing I can think of that changed is upgrading to Windows 10. I really like Windows 10. I just want to figure this out.

The only error I see is the one quoted in the original post. 

My boys love to lan on Minecraft. It all worked great until we updated to Windows 10. Now when they want to join a lan-world they get them message "java.net.connectexception:connection timed out:no further information". I'm sorry if I cannot be more specifik, but I don't know enough about it. Do we need to change something in our Firewall? / Hopeful mom
