If your PC is connected to a network, you can declare that a folder can be used (or shared) by other users on the network. To share a folder, click once on the folder icon and then click on the right-hand mouse button. Select the Properties option from the pop-up menu and choose Sharing. Once you have set a folder as shareable, the icon for the folder changes so that it now appears with a cable running below the folder to remind you that other users have access to it.
