Share files between home PC’s

So you have a couple of computers in your home and you want to share files between users/computers.
This is great if you want to keep a backup of your children’s homework for example.
You need the computers to be on the same network and be set to PRIVATE. Don’t worry, I show you how to check for this in the video.
Secondly, the “Server” PC which is going to host the files must have Users created and the Usernames/Passwords set to the same as the device they are using. You can get around this, but honestly its easier not to, and it follows best practice for security. It also allows you to control what others on your network can see.

This is very simple file sharing, there is a lot more that you can do but this is just to get you started.
Please feel free to leave comments on the YouTube video.
