Using Shared Folders in Windows 8
Windows lets you share folders and their contents with other network users. Users within your network can see the folders and, if permission settings allow it, access the files in them just as they would any file on their own hard drive. In this section, we show you how to use files and folders shared by other users. Later in the chapter, you’ll learn how to share folders on your own computer.
In the following sections, we’ll be using the Desktop view unless we say otherwise. To go to the desktop, press Windows Logo+D or select Desktop from the Start screen.
