Windows 95
Preparing to Use File and Printer Sharing
The instructions below explain how to turn on file and
printer sharing in Windows 95 so that your computer
can be accessed by others and vice-versa.
To set up sharing for the first time on a computer, click
on Start, Settings, Control Panel, then double-click on
Network. Click on the Configuration tab, followed by
the File and Printer Sharing button. The File and
Printer Sharing window will appear.
If you'd like others to be able to access the files on your
PC's hard drive, select I want to be able to give others
access to my files. If you'd like to share your printer
with other users on the network, select I want to be able
to allow others to print to my printer. Click on the OK
button.
File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks should
now appear in the list of installed components. Click
OK. When asked to restart your PC, choose to do so.
