A. B. C. D.B.
The correct answer is B. Turn on network discovery.
Explanation:
In a workgroup environment, each computer or workstation can share resources, such as files and printers, with other computers on the same network. In order for a user to see the workstations present on the LAN, network discovery must be enabled.
Network discovery is a Windows setting that allows computers on the same network to see each other and share resources. When network discovery is turned on, the computer is able to find other computers and devices on the network and display them in the Network folder.
Option A, turning off public folder sharing, is unrelated to seeing workstations on the LAN. Public folder sharing allows users to share files and folders with other users on the network.
Option C, using 128-bit encryption, is also unrelated to seeing workstations on the LAN. Encryption is a security measure that protects data from unauthorized access, but it has no effect on network discovery.
Option D, turning on file and folder sharing, is similar to public folder sharing and allows users to share files and folders with other users on the network. However, it does not necessarily enable network discovery, which is required for seeing workstations on the LAN.
Therefore, the correct option to enable a user to see workstations present on the LAN in a workgroup environment is to turn on network discovery.
