View Workgroup Computers

[Guest]

My Desktop and Laptop are connected through a router vis ethernet cables and
both can access the internet. I have run the Network Setup Wizard several
times. My desktop workgroup shows both the Desktop and the Laptop, but the
Laptop does not show the Desktop. I can access files on the Laptop from the
Desktop, but not visa versa. After running the setup wizard and restarting
the Laptop, I get the following message:

"Windows Explorer. Workgroup is not accessible. You might not have
permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this
server to find out if you have access permissions. The requested resource is
in use."

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what is allowed
to be shared.
