Windows 10 private network is making me crazy.
I have tried all the Microsoft instructions as well as many on-line help videos and can't get the network to work properly.
i have three computers. They can all see each other on Windows Explorer.
Computers A and B can access each other.
Computers B and C can access each other.
Computer A can access Computer C but C can't access computer A.This is a real problem because the printer is connected to A and can't be accessed by C.
Computer A is connected to the router via ethernet. The others use WiFi.
I feel that this should be easy but I have been unsuccessful.

Reference thread:
===============================================
Least complicated:
Connect the printer to your network and install the full driver printer software on each computer in that network.
From Microsoft:

Shared Folder Permission Settings
When all else fails, the issue is perhaps a permission problem in the shared data folder.
File Explorer > Navigate to the folder that will be used to share the data
Right-Click on the folder > Properties > Sharing > Advanced Sharing
Click (Select) Share this folder
Click (Select) Permissions
Beneath Allow > Check each box: Full Control, Change, Read
Click OK to save changes
