How to enable file sharing for all networks

[ur]

How to enable file sharing for all public,private,work,home networks.

I mean programatically using AutoIT.

I just had to do this for a customer, using nvspbind.exe. Here is what I did; you should be able to modify it easily for your needs:

Func _turnOnFilePrint()
    Local $oWMI = ObjGet("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\.\root\cimv2")
        If IsObj($oWMI) Then
            Local $oNICs = $oWMI.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_NetworkAdapter WHERE NetConnectionStatus = '2'")
                If $oNICs.Count > 0 Then
                    For $sNic In $oNICs
                        ShellExecuteWait(@TempDir & "\nvspbind.exe", '-e "' & $sNic.Description & '" ms_server', Default, Default, @SW_HIDE)
                    Next
                Else
                    Return 1
                EndIf
        Else
            Return 1
        EndIf

    Return 0
EndFunc

The above command is not enabling sharing.

Could you please help me on this.

Did you run it with #RequireAdmin? It just worked for me for 3000+ computers, so you're going to have to be more specific than "it doesn't work"

I am using #RequireAdmin.Downloaded  nvspbind.exe  and targeted to @ScriptDir and ran the above code.

But it is not enabling any sharing in the network settings.

Were you just binding the protocol, or were you enabling File & Print Sharing for each network location profile?

@ur Toggling the "Turn on/off file and printer sharing" for a given network location profile (Private, Public, Work) seems to change the firewall configuration (WF.msc)

This looks like a potential starting place: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa364721.aspx
