Windows 10 do not likes the netlogon share on server (Samba or Windows)

Today, I had an interesting issue: Windows 10 (workgroup setting, local account) does not connect to the Samba netlogon share, even with the latest Samba version (4.2.3), it asks username and password.
Access to other shares works without any issue.
I had also checked the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\AllowInsecureGuest setting – it does not change anything.
My temporary solution was to create a new share, identical to the netlogon share, with another name – I choosed netlogonw10. Calling the login script from this share works.

The same is true also for netlogon shares on Windows servers, if the machine is not in the Windows domain
