Enable file and print sharing command line - how to enable it just for profile=private

Solution 1:

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="File and Printer Sharing (SMB-In)" dir=in profile=public|private|domain new enable=Yes|No

To set three profiles together at one time, use：

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="File and Printer Sharing (SMB-In)" dir=in new enable=Yes

The rule name must be changed in your local language, for example：

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="檔案及印表機共用 (SMB-In)" dir=in profile=private new enable=Yes

Don't forget to run as an administrator.

Solution 2:

You are activating a preset rule, and I am guessing that the preset rule has Profile=any in it.

Try this first:

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group="File and Printer Sharing" new profile=private
