Not be able to share files and folders between two computer

Hello
I have a desktop PC in my room but no cable UTP. However, I have a laptop with working Wi - Fi connection perfectly fine so I decided to share it with my desktop via ethernet cable. Sharing network works fine, but my desktop PC Gets the APIPA IP address. I was told that this laptop creates a new network, a different IP so...

Problem is I want to share my HARD drive between the two, but it does not seem possible because the computers are not in the same network.
IP addresses are:
1. laptop:

IPv4: 192.168.1.4

SM: 255.255.255.0

DG: 192.168.1.1

2 PC:

IPv4 address: 192.168.137.225
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.137.1

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bridge

It does not at all... I have no shared Wi - Fi network first, then I bridget both, but Desktop PC puts a message that this IP address is already in use...

Screenshots:

Remote access credentials does not

Parameters of bridge on my laptop

I just want a connection to work on both PC and access each HARD drive (via the homegroup sharing). Is it possible to get a normal LAN address instead of AUTOMATIC, a bridge using private IP addressing or network option share?

Any help would be appreciated,

Ryan

Original title: bridge/Share connection question

Hello
I was able to solve the problem. You wouldn't believe what caused it...
Years ago, I changed my username on the laptop (in control of group/user accounts). When I tried to connect to my laptop from my desktop, I entered, of course, the same username and password I use to connect every day... However, Windows requires original/old username, that before I changed the to the present, which is very weird if you ask me... I was lucky enough a few other guys made a YT video about it. Who would have thought that you had to enter obsolete user name to connect to the homegroup, even if I use any other username to log when you use the mobile phone physically.

in any case, thanks for your help.

See you soon

  • How to share files and images between two users on the same computer?

    I am running as admin on my computer and I made a separate user for my girlfriend, but I don't know how to make so that it can access the photos I have on my user of its user. I tried to just copy the files from my user him, but which seems to make another copy files. This will be inevitably a little space and so I would like to know if I could just have one, single, copying a file that we have access to our users.

    Also, should I make another user for myself and leave the administrator for emergency purposes? I read something on ot that need to use an administrator account for daily purposes, and it is safer just have on the contrary another user with administrator privileges.

    Make a folder on the drive, something like C:\Pictures and then right-click > properties > Security and make sure that the user has full control

    Yes to the creation of a normal user account and leaving the admin account for administrative purposes.

    I hope this helps.

  • share files and printers between 3 PC

    I have 3 fully equipped computers to windows vista.
    two computers can connect to eachother and share files, while the third cannot.
    I tried to renew the ip address and attempts to connect without a fire blumenthals, nothing works
    Help, please!

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    (C) in Vista, turn on password protected sharing. Create accounts of users and corresponding passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Vista - Start ORB > Search > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    Original title: unlock files locked in the residential-change group of security settings does not (always says that I don't have permission even if I am Admin)

    I have a Windows 7 operating system.

  • How can I get full control of all of my files and folders
