How do I share stuff between 2 PCs with a LAN cable?

You have 2 options. 1 you can get an ethernet crossover cable to connect the 2 PCs directly to each other , configure their ip addresses manually on the LAN ports and then configure shared folders through which you will do the file sharing. You also need to make sure the firewall allows file sharing.

2. You can get a switch or a router and connect both PCs with regular/straight ethernet cable to the switch or router. With the switch you'll still need to configure ip addresses manually while a router can handle that part automatically. Follow the other steps and you are ready.
