1. go to control panel > network and sharing center
2. make sure file sharing is turn on and password protected sharing is off
3. right click on the folder that you wanted to share

6. then click share
7. right click on the same folder, click properties
8. go to the tab Sharing
9. click Advanced Sharing
10. tick on Share this folder
11. click on Permissions
12. you should be able to see Everyone in the group and usernames box
13. tick full control for that group
14. then apply
it should work...post any problems you may find...
