I am trying to help a neigbor setting up file sharing between their desktop
running windows home and their laptop running windows media center.
I can see files on the laptop but the laptop cannot see the files on the
desktop. I took my laptop over and it coud not see files on the desktop but
the desktop and their laptop could see my laptop shared files.
I can see the desktop computer from the laptop but not the shared files.
I reran the network setup wizard multiple times.
I made sure that the firewalls were turned off.
Checked services to ensure required services were running.
Tried changing the workgroup name.
Tried to find the computer/share via mapping a network drive without success.
I"ve tried everything I can think of but nothing seems to work. I've set up
file sharing many times on other systems.
I would appreciate any ideas.
