Explanation

To allow a user to access shared files from another desktop in a small office network, the technician should configure the network as private, enabling network discovery and file sharing.

Common mistakes.

• B. Enabling a proxy server routes web traffic through an intermediary and is not directly related to enabling local file sharing between desktops.
• C. Granting the network administrator role to the user is a security risk and is not required for a user to access a shared drive.
• D. Creating a shortcut to public documents would only access local public folders on the user's own machine or existing network shares, not configure the sharing mechanism itself.

Concept tested. Network profile configuration for file sharing
