    I have Win7. 64 Bit on my DeskTop PC and the Network Group is called WORKGROUP.
    And yes I did go into the Folder I want to Share on my Network and Ad it and give it Read/Write for Anyone.

    Then I went to my Win10 PC and Turned On Network And Sharing Discovery.

    On my Win10 PC I Right Click Thi PC and Click Network Mapping.

    And the next window opens and I Click Brows because I need to tell it whare I want it to look for the Folder I will be Sharing from my Win7. PC.

    So it Displays a List and I pick the Name of my Win7. that has the Folder I want to have it look to for the Folder.

    But a window opens and says You Do Not Have Access To This Folder.

    What am I missing?
    Thanks.

    After I Right Clicked the Folder I want to Share I Click Properties.

    Then I Click the Sharing Tab.

    Now the Path to the Folder I am going to Share shows on this Screen.
    Right under it says Share and I Click it.

    The next Screen has a Dropdown Box and I Click Everyone then I Click Ad Tab.

    Now Everyone Show up in the List below and to the Right of this I Click Read Tab and put a Check in it so I will just give Read Rights to the other Computer.

    And I think I Turned On Network Sharing or something like this on both Computers.

    So when I go to my Win10 Computer and Right Click on This PC and then Click Map Network it does it.

    But I do need help with one thing?

    After I Right Click on a Folder I want to Share and on the next Screen I Click Sharing Tab.
    This Screen I Click the Share Tab under the Folder Path I get this.

    On this next Screen what if I do not want to Select Everyone from the Dropdown list.
    I know I can just Type the Name in and I do
    2inonetablet

    Then I Click Ad.
    A Screen tells me it can not Find that User.

    But if I Select Everyone then I am ok.

    Instead of having Everyone on my WorkGroup be able to get to this Folder I just want to let my other Computer.
    What am I missing?

    Ok I wanted to let everybody know if I Right Click on a Folder and Click Properties then the Sharing Tab.

    And on this Page I click Share I can use the Dropdown List and Pick Every One.

    So anybody who is on my Network can get to this Folder.

    But if I do not want to Pick Every One I can Type a Name in.
    The Name will be the Name of the Computer I want to be able to get to this Folder.

    So I Type in the name of my LapTop and it says it can not Find this Computer.

    What am I doing Wrong?

    Thanks for the Time.

    Ok I can now Share a Folder on my DeskTop to my LapTop on the same Network.

    So now I did one more thing>

    I want to Share my USB Drive.

    So I Right Click my USB Drive and Pick Properties then Click Share.

    And on this screen it says Shared and shows the Path and all is ok.

    Now when I go to my LapTop Running Win10. I Right Click This PC.
    Then I Click Map Network Drive.

    And just like when I Share a Folder I select my PC Path and Click OK.

    And when I See the USB Drive I Click on it.
    And it says I have no Rights.

    So I go back to my USB Drive and Right Click it and Click Security.
    And in this List I do not know what to Click?

    But I did try to Click Edit.

    And on the next screen I do not know what to Click?
