File sharing lets you use one computer in the network to access files that are 

stored on another computer in the network. For example, you may want to store 

your family pictures on the desktop computer, but be able to access and view 
the pictures from your notebook.

To share files:

1. On the computer that’s storing the file (your desktop), enable sharing on 

that file (or folder) by doing the following:

a. Through My Computer, locate the file (or folder) that you want to share.

b. Right-click the file (or folder) and select Properties.

c. Select Sharing, Share this folder, and click OK.

Only the files marked for sharing can be accessed by other 
computers on the network.
