TLDR; try this and reboot
Open administrator cmd prompt
dism.exe /Online /Enable-Feature /All /FeatureName:SMB1Protocol
for some reason the forum keeps putting the emoticon, see also @ https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/7ac3mo/how_can_i_reenable_smbv1_in_windows_10_1709/

Had already tried most of these solutions to no avail usually i get this
Feature name SMB1Protocol is unknown.
A Windows feature name was not recognized.
Use the /Get-Features option to find the name of the feature in the image and try the command again.
also tried
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName smb1protocol
and no go.
Pretty much not matter what i tried, i could not install it.

Do you see it listed when you look in "turn windows features on or off"?

Do you see it in powershell when you run it as administrator?
That is, Get-WindowsOptionalFeature –Online –FeatureName SMB1Protocol

There might be a GPO that's blocking it. So maybe also look here: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/staysafe/2017/05/17/disable-smb-v1-in-managed-environments-with-ad-group-policy/
