November 7, 200916 yr turn off password protection for file sharing across a home network? Pretty simple question, I'm sure theres a simple answer, but windows sure as hell doesnt want to give it to me?
November 8, 200916 yr On vista, right click on the internet/network symbol in the taskbar, go to the network and sharing center and then there are options for sharing at the bottom. Hegemony-Spain
