How to share a folder with windows server 2019 that requires a login to access

I am trying to setup a home network with windows server 2019 as a file server. I made user accounts on the server and setup a shared folder giving access to those user. But when I go to login I get the following error.

"You do not have permission to access \PC_NAME contact your network administrator to request access"

How can I get it to prompt me with a login option?

I am not using a domain or active directory because that sounds scary and really complicated seeing as all I want to do it share folders.
