How do I get the File and Print Sharing Button to come up in the Network Neighborhood Properties without completely re-loading Win 95? I believe file sharing wasn't installed originally. Can anyone help?
 
In that same window:

- click Add
- choose Service and hit OK
- Select from the list and choose Microsoft on the left side
- on the right, choose File And Print Sharing for MS Networks and hit ok
- hit ok again and reboot when prompted

THAT'S what do!!!!! Thanks Mucho Grande cdogg!!!
 
Actually, there is no "service" selection to hit
 
In network properties there is a tick box for i want to share printer . When you tick this, windows will ask for the setup CD to be placed in the Cd rom and it will install the extra feature of printer sharing or file sharing without re-installing the whole of windows.but you need a windows 95 setup cd unless the cd was copied onto the hard drive.
 
Thanks bdux. I don't see the tick box you're talking about. Are you talking about right-clicking on Network Neighborhood and dragging down to properties? I did that and the tick box isn't there.
