Turning on Steam Family Sharing is pretty straightforward. First, you gotta log into your Steam account on the computer you want to share your games from. Then, head over to the Steam menu in the upper left, click 'Settings', and find the 'Family' tab. In there, check the box for 'Authorize Library Sharing on this computer', and select the account you want to share with. Just remember, both you and your pal need to authorize each other's computers for full sharing magic!

Pro tip: Make sure the person you're sharing with logs into Steam on your PC at least once. This step is a must-do for family sharing to work!

Lemme keep it simple: 1. Log into Steam where your games are. 2. Hit 'Settings' > 'Family'. 3. Tick 'Authorize Library Sharing'. 4. Choose who gets the keys to your gaming kingdom. Remember, sharing is caring, but only five accounts per library!
