How can I setup a share on a client computer in a Windows 2012 Essentials domain?

I have 2 PCs logged into this domain, and I would like to share computer A's documents with computer B.

Is there a way to do this?

To create a share on a Windows 7 machine go to the folder you want to share, right click > sharing > click share

enter image description here

then enter who you want share with (if a domain user enter their username in the domain\username format) and permissions (read or read/write) then click share. enter image description here

Everyone will share it for all domain users: enter image description here

Keep in mind, that if this computer is off, no one can reach the share. If you have a Server in place - it's much better suited there than on someone's local machine.
