Hello out there Windows 7 Geeks,
Here is what i would like to try and do. I have two computers, a Desktop and a Laptop. My Desktop sits at home, while my laptop goes with me to school or anywhere else that i need it.
Now, i would like to see how i can set up my computers (or network?) so that i can access my Desktop files via my laptop online.
I want to try and carry as few files on the laptop as possible, such as if ever lost or stolen, i wont have my data or files compromised/stolen.
I also plan to install a SSD on the laptop, in order to try and make my battery last longer, but SSD's are still too expensive (i have a 250 HDD right now), I'm thinking of getting a 64GB SSD and trying to carry as few files as possible. Getting a 250 GB SSD is just way too expensive right now.
I'm looking out there for something that is free and simple to use.
I have heard that Windows has a thing called Remote Desktop Connenction, but i have tried to use it, but i never got it to work somehow. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.
