Does WideFS works on windows 7 starter?

If it supports local networking, yes. If not, if you cannot network it, then no. So check that.

WideFS just needs standard networking capabilities. Any recent version of Windows will do from XP onwards. Old versions of WideClient work on Windows 98 and even Windows 95 too, but I don't think the latest ones will.

According to the info I have, Windows 7 Starter can join, but not create, home groups, so it must have some form of networking. I'm not sure, however, how much. According to the MS advertising gumph it is designed for Netbooks, which would imply having at least WiFi compatibility, otherwise you'd never be able to get anything installed on it!
