Windows 7 note

For succesfully sharing a folder on Win7 x86/x64 you have

to setup sharing rights for the folder(any share) on the

machine.

- Open Network and Sharing Center by clicking the Start

button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Network and Internet,

and then clicking Network and Sharing Center.

- Click the arrow button next to Password protected

sharing, and then click one of the following options:

1 - In the

Public Folder Sharing section select the following

option:

“Turn on sharing so anyone with network accesscan read

and write files in the Public folders.”

2 - In the

Password protected sharing section select the

following option:

“Turn off password protected sharing.”

If option 2 is NOT available it is most likely because you are

on a domain controlled network, and we advise talking to

your network administrator, before proceeding.

Advise for the network administrator:

The user should be able to sign out of the domain

controlled network. Logging into a local account will not

solve this issue.

A new account must be added to the domain with read/

write access to the shared folder on the Mothership.

Shared folders Mac - basics

Preferences - Shared.
