However, please make sure your internal network in the office or home is safely protected and there are no unwanted computers accessing it.<br \/>\nHere is how to allow other computers to directly access your files:<\/p>\n<p>Step One. Open the Control Panel and click on \u201cSystem and security\u201d:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1816\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filepuma.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/HxqVU1065438de2e6494a275096899.png\" alt=\"01\" width=\"461\" height=\"248\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step Two. Under the \u201cSystem\u201d submenu, click on \u201cAllow remote access\u201d. Note: you need to be an administrator on your computer:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1817\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filepuma.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/BDHrt225438dee246a19671609487.png\" alt=\"02\" width=\"408\" height=\"235\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step Three. Click on the tickbox which says \u201dAllow Remote Assistance connections to this computer\u201d:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filepuma.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MvbrH4375438def04d866293782580.png\" alt=\"03\" width=\"505\" height=\"219\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step Four. It is a good idea to keep the remote access on for a limited time only. For safety reason, we recommend that you further click on the \u201cAdvanced\u2026\u201d button:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1820\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filepuma.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/aVfjP2815438df1467226949373717.png\" alt=\"04\" width=\"445\" height=\"201\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step Five. Under \u201cInvitations\u201d, select from the dropdown however long you think it is going to take to transfer the files or documents and \u00a0click \u201cOK\u201d:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1821\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filepuma.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/XPjws1715438df21eea69668936127.png\" alt=\"05\" width=\"411\" height=\"247\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now another computer can connect to you and do a quick transfer of files, and after certain hours the session will expire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you are working in a private network and you want to exchange files between computers, it is sometimes simpler to just open direct access to your computer, rather than transfer by thumbdrive or email.
