Want to share folders between 2 machines on a home network
I want to share folders between 2 machines on a home network.
I have been through all the checks for Homegroup; both machines are connected to the same Workgroup, with the same file-sharing permissions on a wired Home Network, running through the same router with no other apparent issues. Both computers are visible on the network.
One machine indicates it can join has a Homegroup created on the other machine, but the Homegroup password is not available on that machine! (The Troubleshooter is useless.)
When I try to access a shared folder on machine 2 from machine 1, I get a permissions error. Both machines are set to not require password access.
So I either have to fix the Homegroup (and I have tried many times) or find another way to share folders.
