Product: HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-c0000 (2W0J9AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
Hello! There are 2 HP computers in my home that share the same wifi. I want to be able to share files between the two computers. In other words, I want both computers to be able to access Public folders. However, I cannot figure out how to accomplish this. I thought it should be as simple as "Sharing Nearby" and having the passcode to each computer available. Please help?
