The computers contain the shared folders shown in the following table.

Suggested Answer:
When password protected sharing is turned on, only people who have a user account and password on your computer can access shared files.

Box 1: Yes -
Password protected sharing is turned off on Computer2 so User1 can access Share2 from Computer1.

Box 2: Yes -
Password protected sharing is turned on on Computer1. User2 has an account on Computer1 so User2 can access Share1 from Computer2.

Box 3: Yes -
The answer to this question depends on which version of Windows 10 is running on the computers. This isn't specified in the question so it's likely that the question will be updated in future.
Password protected sharing is turned on on Computer1. User3 does not have an account on Computer1 so User3 cannot access Share1 from Computer2.
However, the Guest account is enabled which could provide access depending on which version of Windows 10 is running. If it is Windows 10 Home or Pro, then the answer to this question is Yes. The Guest account does provide access. However, in later versions of Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education
(from build 1709 onwards), the Guest account does not enable access to the shared folder.

YES, YES, NO I guess this sentence [Computer1 has password-protected sharing turned on. Computer2 has password-protected sharing turned off] is just for making confusion here as given the scenario and the users who all of them have passwords [i.e. not blank], and they are equal on all computers, then it has no effect The reason why Computer1\User1 can access Computer2\Share2 is simply because both computers Computer1 and Computer2 have local accounts with the same name and the same password. User3 instead is a local user only on computer2, so computer1 has no idea who the heck is this guy, hence User2 CANNOT access any share on remote computers

Not quite right :( In a workgroup, with Password-Protected Sharing turned off, anyone with or without a user account can access shared folders. With Password-Protected Sharing turned on, only local user accounts can access shared folders.

I would say Yes, Yes, No. While the info given may be correct the question doesn't say which version of windows in used so I would work to the latest version.

I have doubts about second and third answer. Especially third. Usually you must have same account with same password on all stations and with password protection off if you want unrestricted and smooth access.

https://www.tenforums.com/network-sharing/61689-network-share-requesting-password-but-password-protection-turned-off.html I had same issue like these people. Maybe MS think that it works but in real life you still have to add accounts with same password and name for all computers.
