How Do I See Other Computers on My Network Windows 7?
Contents

On Windows 7, go to Network and Sharing Center, change Advanced Sharing Settings. Turn on network discovery for whichever network you’re connected to (i.e. home, public, domain). Although I wouldn’t recommend you turn it on if you’re on a public network.

Why can’t I see other computers on my network?

For most Windows users, the biggest cause of hidden PCs on a network is due to the network discovery settings on Windows. When this setting is disabled, your PC is hidden from the local network, and other PCs are hidden from you. You can check whether network discovery is enabled by opening Windows File Explorer.

How do I make my computer visible on network Windows 7?

Open the Network and Sharing Center . On the left side click on Change advanced sharing settings . You probably told Win7 that this is a Work network so click on Home or Work and then select Turn on network discovery and Turn on file and printer sharing .
