I have a desktop computer running Windows XP and a laptop on Windows 7. I am also sharing my internet connection between the two by means of a wireless router. This wireless router is connected to the desktop by means of a USB (since my desktop does not have a wireless capability, yeah I know its an old one :) ). My laptop connects to this router through Wi-Fi.
I would like to turn on windows file sharing between my desktop and my laptop. Since I am a weakling in networking, any help to solve my issues would be well appreciated.
Nope , i tried doing the same, by assigning both the computers to the same workgroup, but still i cant access my files and folders. what could be the reason ? – Gagan – 2011-04-14T21:59:52.903
1Is it giving you an error? Can you see the files/folders, but just not open them? – soymedia – 2011-04-15T01:58:14.217
