I go to file explore and all I see on Network is just my computer so how can I get them all the workgroup so I can see all my computers
Make sure they're all set to private network in Windows Firewall and then configure sharing.

You also might be able to hit them at their admin share at \\IP-or-Hostname\C$

I went to Windows Firewall and private networks are connected then I went to File Explore and click this PC and click networks and all I see is my computer?
Getting computers to recognize one another can be a pita.
1. All computers have to be in the same workgroup name
2. On every pc, go to network settings and make sure network discovery is on
3. File and printer sharing is enabled
4. You'll have to share the drives you want access to on each pc
5.. You may have to map network drives
6. Some users have to store all files in a public folder to all pc's can access them.

first open ommand prompt.
type hostname for each computer.
go to another computer and ping that hostname if they are on the same subnet . if it replies successfully then you are one good step ahead.
if it complains about inability to resolve hostname then run ipconfig
write down the ip and ping from another machine.
if any of these is successful we can further know what else to do
