## Configuring a Fallback Shared Folder
## (Optional) Configuring a Fallback Shared Folder
When connecting to Windows through FreeRDP, your home folder will be shared automatically. However, this sharing setup does not apply when using Windows via virt-manager. To configure a fallback shared folder, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to "Virtual Hardware Details", then "Memory" and then check the box for "Enable shared memory".

## (Optional) Configuring a Static IP Address
1. Identify the Windows MAC address.
```bash
virsh dumpxml "RDPWindows" | grep "mac address"
```
2. Edit the virtual network configuration.
1. Identify the correct network name.
```bash
virsh net-list # Will likely return "default"
```
2. Edit the configuration file.
```bash
virsh net-edit "default" # Replace "default" with the appropriate network name if different
```
3. Update the `<dhcp>` section in the configuration file using the MAC address you obtained earlier. In the below example, "RDPWindows" has MAC address "df:87:4c:75:e5:fb" and is assigned the static IP address "192.168.122.2".
```xml
<dhcp>
<range start="192.168.122.2" end="192.168.122.254"/>
<host mac="df:87:4c:75:e5:fb" name="RDPWindows" ip="192.168.122.2"/>
<host mac="53:45:6b:de:a0:7b" name="Debian" ip="192.168.122.3"/>
<host mac="7d:62:4f:59:ef:f5" name="FreeBSD" ip="192.168.122.4"/>
</dhcp>
```
4. Restart the virtual network.
```bash
virsh net-destroy "default" # Replace with the correct name on your system
virsh net-start "default" # Replace with the correct name on your system
```
5. Reboot Windows.
