Let’s take a look at the brand new feature and how to use it.
Nearby Sharing

Search for “Shared Experience” in the Start menu, or go to Settings >> System >> Shared Experience (from the left panel).
Turn the slide to “On” and enjoy the quick file sharing between the nearby computer(s). It also shows the available option for sharing connection options (Wi-Fi or Bluetooth). The sharing is performed without any password.
