When I try to connect to my mysql DB from another computer in my network it says can't connect.
Do I have to enable something?

Hi,
You need to open TCP port 3306 in the Windows firewall to allow connections from other computers. You can allow the connection from the specific PC or the subnet, for added security.
You should also add the computer you are connecting from as a host underneath the username you are using in MySQL user permissions.
