Can someone advise me the simplest way to share a folder between the two computers please? It really should be easy to do. Monday, August 29, PM. Best regards Please remember to mark the replies as an answers if they help and unmark them if they provide no help. Tuesday, August 30, AM. I created a homegroup on the win 10 machine.
I tried also to add a homegroup on the win7 machine, which I did, but they could not see each other. There must be more to it than just adding a home group on each machine.
Are they public shares? Malware and firewall, both turned off. They're shares Hi Boristhecat, You don't "add" a homegroup on each machine. I make a homegroup on wind 10 machine, I can't see it on win 7 machine. I give up. Thanks for your time everyone. Edited by sacentre Monday, October 23, AM. Monday, October 23, AM.

For the password settings I use "let windows manage the connection" NB: both PC have to be on "private" internet connection Once you do this, get to the folder you want to share, right click, sharing, advanced sharing, "everyone" and give all the permissions.

A Network Interface Card is a card used by your computer or laptop to communicate over a network. There are multiple types of NIC cards that connect to different technologys such as Ethernet or Wireless. This lack of multiple Network Interface Cards makes it impossible for a user to have an internet connection whilst sharing a hotspot. Thankfully due to virtualisation, you can "split" your NIC into "two" hardware and while one is connected to the internet, the other can be sharing this internet connection with your other WiFi capable devices.
Anyway enough information, lets get to the instructable. This step will guide you through enabling the "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" : From my knowledge the "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" is not compatible with all wireless cards but if it yours is compatible, and you follow my guide, it will work. This step will walk you through the process of creating a wireless hotspot using a pre-existing wired ethernet internet connection. To begin with, if it has not already been done, plug in an ethernet cable into your PC's Ethernet port.
Enable the virtual adapter, if it is not already enabled, by right clicking on the adapter and pressing enable. Once you have internet connectivity via the Ethernet cable and the virtual adapter is enabled, right click on the "Local Area Connection" button and click "Properties". Once the dialogue box pops up, click on the "Sharing" tab.
From here click the check box labeled "Allow other Network Users to connect through this Computer's Internet Connection". This final step will guide you through starting and stopping the wireless hotspot access point. It's time to go back to CMD. Try connecting to it with a different WiFi compatible device. Thanks for reading and I hoped you learned from this as much as I did. Thanks author for this guide which helped me on my desktop with internal PCI wireless card.
I made my wifi hotspot but by mistake i clicked on the disable key..!!! I wasn't able to access..! Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro? Resources for IT Professionals. Sign in. United States English. Ask a question. Quick access.
