If "Simple File Sharing" is disabled either set "Everyone-Full access" under the
Security and Sharing tabs.
Or
Add the username/password for the PC user you want to allow to the User Accounts on
the PC with the shared file/folder.
Add the user/privileges under the Security and Sharing tabs of the share.

Before doing any of the above, first check any software firewall installed to make
sure the PC you want to allow access to the share isn't being blocked/restricted, if
it is add the PC to the Trusted zone.
