How to see what files a computer is sharing on your home network(gagabaig)

1. Go to the start menu

2. Choose My Network places, a dialog box will appear

3. Under the heading of Network Tasks, choose View workgroup computers computers

4. Now you will be able to see the computers on your network.

5. Double click on the one you want to open. I am going to double click on Server. (That is the name of the computer)

6. Now you will see what that actual computer is sharing.

Notes:

• If you are on Windows Vista your network will be called MSHOME by default. WORKGROUP is for Windows XP. Here's how to share between XP and VISTA.

• If there are no files to view then there is nothing shared on that computer.

• If access is denied to that computer, file sharing is not enabled on that computer.
