    How to set network of 2 laptops with Windows 7 over wireless router


    I have 2 laptop with Windows 7 64bit Ultimate and another laptop with Windows 7 Starter 32bit and both laptops get internet over wireless router. But I would like to set the network between both laptops to share some files between them. Both computers have the same workgroup. And then I shared one folder in one laptop and I could see it on another computer but when I wanted to open it I got error message that it was not accessible. I don't know what is wrong set and how I could check it.
    Please for any possible help in this matter.

    Welcome to Seven Forums,

    If you have Windows 7/8/8.1 in your home network, ideally HomeGroup should be your network setup, instead of a WorkGroup.
    Here's an easy to follow Tutorial by Brink on how to setup a Windows 7 Homegroup.
