Sharing files between Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 7

Question

I have two computers, one is running windows 7 and the second is running Ubuntu.

My two computers are connected to a WiGi network. I want to make a directory in the Desktop where i could share files between Ubuntu and Windows 7, files like pdf , images ....

I have already looked in many discussions but I didn't find a solution.

Thank you

you can install ssh on both machine, and then you connect them (ubuntu -> W7 and W7 -> ubuntu) — Oki Erie Rinaldi, Jan 07 '17 at 02:05
or, you also can install samba on your ubuntu. Enable filesharing on W7, then connect to your W7 with smb://yourW7ipaddress — Oki Erie Rinaldi, Jan 07 '17 at 02:06
