Set Rules for Sharing Files and Equipment

You can configure your computer to enable other Bluetooth devices to use some of the peripheral
devices that are physically connected to your computer. Examples of such peripheral devices include a

in Bluetooth Exchange Folder on your computer and to send pictures, music, and other files to the
folder.

message is displayed. If the item is being sent from a trusted device, click OK to
authorize access. If the item is not being sent from a trusted device, or you are not sure, ignore
the request or click Cancel to deny access. You can specify whether to allow access only for the
current time, for a specific amount time, or to always allow access for that particular device.

which, by default, is located in the Documents folder. For other file types, such as images or
