This menu displays the shared network directories of the user. Credentials are used to access a directory without exposing or mapping it.
Configure file sharing
- On Windows:
- Access the user's desktop.
- Locate the folder you want to share, or create a new one.
- Select the folder.
- Right-click on it and choose Properties.
- Select the Sharing tab and then the Share button.
- Choose the users you want to share the folder with and click Add.
- Click the Share button.
- Copy the path. Example: \WINDOWS10PRO\Shared Folder
- Done.
- On the GO application:
- Start Core.
- Click Network Sharing.
- In the central area of the screen, right-click and select Add sharing.
- Enter the path of the folder that you will share. Example: \WINDOWS10PRO\Shared Folder
- OK.
Access or remove shared folders on GO
The user can access a shared folder using the selected credential. The credential is not necessarily a domain one.
- Start Core.
- Click Network Sharing.
- Select the folder you want to access or unshare.
- Right-click and choose one of the following options from the context menu:
- Access sharing
- Delete sharing
Info
The folders accessed by Core are registered and can be reaccessed due to the cache of credentials managed by Windows. These folders won't be mapped as a drive.
Access shared folders outside of GO
Once authenticated, Windows creates a local cache with network access allowing the folder to be viewed without GO Endpoint Manager.
