i can access "\\adil-pc\Users" folder but users folders contain only "Guest" and "Public" folders it dont show the rest of Windows 7 Users folders

You need to setup a share for it to work you can't share your profile files is desktop, my doc's even on the PC locally you can't see other users files. The only way it can be done is to connect as the user on the other PC
