Question is the following. How do i share a folder to any user in any network & any homegroup..
Question might seem weird, but.. I keep having problems with this, cos sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't not, and i don't understand why..
So, here's all the info.. I have:
- Windows 8.1 Pro Version 6.3.9600 (Legal version, if that changes anything)
- Avast Internet Security 2014 (again, legal version)
- Firewall enabled
I have shared a folder in my user directory, called "shared"
What i tried:
- disabling Antivirus
- disabling firewall
Here are all the shared info, i have created for it:
All i want is to make this folder shared no matter what.. No matter what network i'm on, no matter how many users are connected to the same network, and any other reason.. and share it without a password..
I want this, cos i'm working at my office with different routers and different OS, that i have to share files with (usually the same files, that i keep modifying and other PC's (including linux & mac) test them..
And the stupid thing is, at random times (at least, i have no idea, why this happens) my pc becomes unnaccessible.. Meaning, others can see my PC, but cant see the folder, i share..
P.S. I don't want any other solutions, to share files.. I'm aware of them, and this is the best way FOR ME. I just want to know, why it doesn't work at some times, and fix it.
