By default, any user can turn your Windows 10 PC into a mobile hotspot by sharing the Internet connection with other devices over Wi-Fi. Users can share a Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or cellular data connection. If your PC has a cellular data connection and you share it, it will use data from your data plan.

 

This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the mobile hotspot feature for all users in Windows 10.

 

You must be signed in as an administrator to enable or disable the mobile hotspot feature.
