Place the cursor on the disk drive you want to share (usually Local Drive C:), then click the right mouse button and scroll down to select Sharing.

NOTE: This will allow others access to all files on this computer. To restrict access to certain folders, double- click on the disk, highlight a folder you want to share, then follow steps 2-4.

Step 3

Click the Share this folder button, then enter a unique name for the drive or

folder you want to share.

To continue, click the Permissions button.

Step 4

At this screen you can set permissions for each user of shared documents. Unless you have special needs for security, it may be easiest to check Allow for all permissions.

operating system.

Click OK when finished.
