Yes, and added all the proper permissions

I can access linux mint fine from my windows PC by giving it my samba user and password, just can't get into my windows from linux
 
You need to have Everyone in both the network share permissions AND the actual folder permissions.

If that does not work then you are just going to have to use a password on your machine
(you can set your computer to auto-login if it is really that much of a hassle).

lol, I think you have mis understood. In the screenshot above, Linux Mint is prompting me for Username, Domain, and Password. I simply don't know what i should put in those boxes. I don't use a password for windows, and windows won't let me set up a domain as long as i'm using a workgroup.
