Connect the two computers using a network adapter or switch to enable file sharing. Since crossover cables are outdated, ensure both devices are properly configured on the same network settings and permissions.

No, I haven't checked the file explorer settings. Would you like me to do it for you?

Sorry for the delayed response. Network discovery is active on both devices. Adjustments needed, okay. I’m a bit confused. My laptop recognizes my desktop, but my desktop can’t detect it?

I don't understand the issue, but can you try moving everything from the laptop to the desktop? It might help resolve the problem.
