Hey guys

So 3 systems connected on one network.

My PC can access their files but theirs' can't access mine.

The one on wifi cannot access my files nor can I theirs.

All run Win 7.

Any ideas about what's going on?

1) check advanced sharing settings and see if network discovery is on and also file and printer sharing.

2) After this if other pc's while trying to access your pc being asked for user name or password , then you need to provide them username and password of any user on your win 7 pc.

else while sharing the contents of your pc select everyone (in the option specific people.)
 
There is a firewall but it's at a low risk state.

None of the systems have a password.

I will check the settings tonight.
