EveryCafe Sharing Folder Setup Guide

EveryCafe Sharing Folder Setup Guide

Recommended method: create the sharing folder from EveryCafe

EveryCafe Manager can create and share the folder for you, so you do not need to build the Windows share manually.

Open Araçlar → Seçenekler → Oturum Ayarları → Stok Ayarları.

Important: Before starting, open the Network and Sharing Center link shown on the screen and disable password-protected sharing.

  • Click Dizin Seç and choose where the sharing folder will be created.
  • Enter a folder name.
  • Click Paylaşım Klasörü Oluştur.
  • EveryCafe creates the folder in the selected location and shares it automatically.

When you see the message confirming that the sharing folder was created successfully, the automatic setup is complete.

Alternative manual setup: If the automatic method cannot be used, follow the manual steps below.

1. Create the sharing folder

Create a folder on the main computer. The original guide recommends not placing this folder on the Windows system drive (C:).

Example: D:\EveryCafeShare

2. Share the folder in Windows

Right-click the folder, open Properties, then use the Sharing tab.

  • Open the Sharing tab.
  • Add the Everyone user and set the permission level to Read.
  • Click Share.
