if both computers are on your LAN, I think it may be more beneficial to you to set up / use SSH
On both machines, check / install SSH:
pacman -Q openssh || pacman -S openssh
on the machine that is borked:
systemctl status sshd || systemctl start sshd
now you should be able to SSH to your broken machine and copy files from it using scp
If you're concerned about security (as we all should be):
* switch off the daemon when you're finished
* do NOT set up port forwarding on your router to ssh port
