So, curiously, both computers are wireless!
A few more questions/actions, some of which you may have tried, in no particular order:
1. Are the computers in the same workgroup? 2. Why did you share the Users folder? You should really be sharing at a lower hierarchical level, e.g. a specific user. 3. Do any of the user accounts have a password? 4. Make sure in Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center you have Network Discovery, File Sharing and Public Folder Sharing set to ‘On’ and, if you‘re not using passwords set Password Protected Sharing to ‘Off‘. 5. Are you accessing the shared folders via Windows Orb (Start) > Network?
1. Yes, both are. 2. I didn't share it. It has been like that since the first time I set the network up. As I have said before I can access files on the PC from my laptop. Each user on the laptop can only access their own files on the desktop pc. The problem still is the same. Files on the laptop cannot be accessed from the PC. 3. All the user accounts have passwords. 4. All of them are turned on. 5. Yes I am.
