Windows 7 with 11 pro ?

I see people can use WMC on 11 my question is more of a Hybrid or just give it up.
I have Win7 WMC working with 2 HDhomerun primes with 3 tuners ea total of 6 of them using EPG123 recording 24/7 with MCEbuddy scanning each removing commercials and formatting them to Mp4 for less space and placing them to VERY OLD WDmycloud and using KODI to watch everything. Just tired of Raspberries or any player crashing because of the cloud. So I purchased Lifetime PLEX Pass knowing they stopped supporting Win7 back in spring but DAMN it would NOT stream over the internet. So I built a New machine Win11 pro with P2200 Vid card for transcoding everything works great......but I have to manually move TV shows to my Win11-Plex server. So I thought I could activate NFS file sharing on 11 like my Cloud as a Mapped drive with Win 7 machine to record to. But Win7 can not see Win11 drives. Anyone have suggestions ? Or is Win11 Pro with WMC works solid to record and do what I was doing on my Win7 machine ? WMC 7 has been solid for 10 years or more :)

The Win 11 PC I installed 3 - 16tb drives to handle my library.
