Finally, someone who walks through the steps slowly and without extraneous side conversations. It was obvious you thought this through and trialed it before making the video. Thank you for that. I couldn't get mine to work before because I didn't realize you needed to set some of the same settings on both machines. It was very frustrating. You outlined my mistake. Thank you again.

10:39 - Thank you so much, you are the first person to explain that I needed to add "Everyone" as a user! This fixed the issue that I have been working on for hours!

I can’t thank you enough! I’ve been trying to share a drive between windows 10 & 11, I’ve followed so many tutorials and nothing worked until I followed yours. It worked immediately! I’ll definitely be back here for anything else in future.

In my case, one PC is connected to the network via Ethernet cable, the other one via Wi-Fi. And it worked like a charm, thank you! ❤❤❤

I bought a desktop and wanted to transfer all my music from my laptop to it. This worked. Thank you very much good sir!

[SuperGeeRee]

Thank you very much. Your video explains everything. Adding everyone to security solved my problem for hours!

Thank you soooo much.... I was getting nowhere with the other YouTubers. They missed the "Turn Windows Features On/Off" step within the Apps and Features setup.
I STILL got the password prompt, despite unchecking it settings (BOTH LAptops), but this time I simply typed in the PIN instead of the password and got through.
Thanks again, I'm saving this video as Im sure will forget the steps in no time

THANK YOU! I really appreciate you breaking everything down and doing a simple to follow step by step tutorial. I was easily able to share drives from my Plex server to my hard wired laptop to transfer files quickly, rather than having to transfer files into a USB drive and walk up to the server and manually transfer them. Thank you again, great work!

I agree with the many other comments!! I've been trying for months to setup a windows network. Google, CoPilot AI, Youtube videos never resulted in success just frustration. This video was easy to follow and resulted in SUCCESS!! Adding Everyone to Sharing and Security with the correct permissions was the key for me. No other resources covered this. Thank you! Will gladly subscribe and make a PayPal donation! Worth paying money for.

I have watched about 5 videos read about 800 things, and nothing
worked, did yours and boom works perfect and even when the folders open if i add something on the main pc it then pops up on the laptop, I do a lot of 3d printing and use the laptop to run the printer, and the pc to model etc so youve saved me a lot of messing about with usb sticks lol . Thank you again !!!

1. I heard your cat - just to say hi!
2. Never did I know we need so many settings to just share a folder - thanks for pointing out!
3. I think Microsoft should work on this, either simplify it, or get us a wizard, or at least make troubleshooting helpful. This is wayyy too complicated, even you got an error just now, and it's just for LAN sharing. And there's still OneDrive & VPN sharing as you mentioned, how on earth we as normal users are going to run it properly - it's just not user friendly enough.

Thank goodness for your video. There are so many poorly written/spoken pages/videos on this, many with incomplete information, but your explanation was clear, efficient, and finally got my home sharing going.

[carolbarnes]

A huge THANK YOU for sharing this information. You are one of the best. ☺☺☺☺☺

[janehay]

Thank you for an wonderfuly clear and precise tutorial. I had looked at other support information but your information was the only one that worked. You took it step by step, explaining the process. I'm very grateful for you sharing your expertise.

[jmenriquez]

Thanks dude I appreciate this a lot! I've watch many tutorial vids some of them made sense but not complete guide

[walterantonello]

Excellent video. I've been trying for the last 2 days to set up to no avail. I've now set up my network and it works the way I want it to work. Thanks so much.

[mikerochburns]

Could not have done this without you, many thanks.

[chaituguk]

With support of this vedio I solved a problem, thank you so much.

[rangersmith]

Worked for me. Remember to add Everyone to both Sharing and Security tabs.

THNX. This was a clear nice step by step tutorial!
