Join David Rivers for an in-depth discussion in this video Selecting sharing options for networks, part of Windows 8 Essential Training.
When you setup a network, join a network, maybe a HomeGroup, for example, there…are certain libraries, maybe even folders and files that are shared.…Well of course, we can always go back and make changes to those settings and…we can take it a step further narrowing it down to specific folders and even…files that we want to share with people, and that's what we're going to talk about right now.…We'll start by going directly to the desktop because that's where we handle all of that.…Once at the desktop, let's go down to the very bottom on the taskbar where…you'll find a shortcut to your File Explorer. Give it a click.…
Down the left-hand side, you'll see the HomeGroup section where you'll see any…homegroups that you may have joined as well as your own.…So for me I've joined one called David.…I've also got my own here called David Rivers.…Look what happens when you click Homegroup over here in the left-hand side in…the navigation pane.…Well, you'll see the homegroups that you are a part of, but look what happened…
