I have a small WIFI network, two Win10 and a Win7 PC connected to my WIFI router. The Win7 PC is wired to the router, the others are wireless. All three can access the Internet w/o issue but I can't get them to see each other and exchange files. Currently I am using a removable USB stick to move files around. I've tried setting up the Home Network but am not getting it right or something.

Of course give the above guidance a go, but also consider either;
- a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device that plugs directly into the modem/router and is available for all users on the network to use. Plus makes an ideal backup medium.
- Cloud storage like OneDrive or DRopBox or that sort. If you have a Office365 subscription, you probably already have OneDrive storage available.
- Some modem/routers have a USB slot that allows for a connected USB stick to be shared across the network.
