    File sharing between 2 computers


    File sharing between 2 computers used to be easy when Homegroup was available! How do I file/folder share between 2 computers using Windows 10?
    If I right click on a folder> Give Access to > Homegroup is not accessible. If I select "specific people" > Add it tells me this person can not be found.

    I'd appreciate a step-by-step, as if starting from scratch.

    Thanks!

    :)

  2. Cannot access shared network drive


    I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
    It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!

    Thank you for the details that you've provided. We suggest that re-map the network folder to refresh the connection between the two computers. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Right click on the Windows icon and select Control Panel.
    • Click Network and Internet on the left menu.
    • Click Network and Sharing Center at the right menu.
    • Click Change advanced sharing settings on the left menu.
    • Under All Networks, turn on the Public folder sharing. (Refer to the screenshot below.)

    Steam Game Sharing?

    This sounds pretty awesome, if true. There are a lot of old games I don't play that I'd be willing to share with friends, and there are some that I'd want to play but not sure about actually buying as well.
