Question: What is the Easiest Way to Share Files on a Vista Computer?

Sharing files does not have to be difficult.

Answer:

Sharing files on a Vista PC is easy if you use the Public folder. Once you make a few setting changes you’ll be able to share, add and delete files without any problems or restrictions.

Here are the steps:

1. Make sure all computers on your network use the same Workgroup name.
   
   
2. Assure “Public Sharing” is turned on and that “Password Protected Sharing” is turned off in the Network and Security Center.
   
   
3. Place any files you want to share in the Public Folder (located in the Users\Public\Public Documents).
