Shared Documents over LAN

January 23rd, 2020

Hi,
So i installed Tiny XP (The one without IE or WMP) and its working perfect for me, only issue is that i can’t see the shared documents with other computers in my LAN, i could see them before i formatted the PC, tried refreshing the page but nothing yet, is there some settings that i need to enable?
Thanks.

Do you mean you cant see shares located on another computer or other computers cant see the shares on this computer.

I mean i can’t see the shares located on another computer.
Answer #3
I assume their all on the same Workgroup?
Answer #4
Hi,
Yes they all were in the same workgroup, usually if you go to my networks the shared folders automatically show up when you refresh the page, with this i had to go to Add network places and choose location and the computers that are listed on the same Workgroup, id have to click on each and manually add the shared folder, abit tedious but works and i can now see the shared folders.
Thanks for the help
Answer #5
Create a mapped drive to stop it from being tedious. In Microsoft Windows XP you just go to My Computer, then to the Tools menu and click Map A Network Drive from here I think you can figure it out you seem to know what you are trying to do as far as networking.
