  • Homegroup question - error "a homegroup can be created on a home network.".

    I read a lot of messages and no cover up my problem. I worked through programs of solving problems without result. The network in the network and sharing Center show that my current network is a home network. I want to create a homegroup and click on create and then click on create a homegroup ready to use. I've selected all the sharing options, and then click Next. The process starts and then I get the following dialog "a homegroup cannot be created on a home network... etc.". Why is this occurs when my network is a home network? I tried all built-in diagnostics programs. In the list of services HomeGroup provider runs as is the peer networking grouping.

    I have a router broadband connections LAN and Wi - Fi a desktop PC connected via Powerline LAN, a printer, which can be LAN or USB or WiFi, a laptop and a Tablet, between all that I want to communicate.

    Where I'm going wrong? I have an administrator account and my normal account. Any action that requires authorization from the admin marked upward and the relevant password entered.

    There, can someone help me please?

    So to use the new Windows 7 homegroup feature, you must make sure that IPv6 is enabled.

    You can check to see if IPv6 is enabled on your computer, click Start , and then type network in the search box.

    Then click on network and sharing Center.

    Then click on change adapter settings in the left pane of the dialog box

    Finally, right click on your network connection, and choose Properties. Here you should see Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) in the list, and they both need to be audited.

    also

    Make sure that third-party firewalls are disabled as Comodo, etc. Sometimes antivirus programs also come with firewall such as Norton, Kaspersky and McAfee Security software. These programs can block connections and help you connect to a homegroup or implementation.

    one last thing to try! GO TO YOUR BUTTON 'START' AGAIN...

    TYPE 'SERVICES' AND WHEN YOU SEE THE REQUEST FOR 'SERVICES '.

  • Failed to create the pool of network VXLAN

    I tried to get VXLANs working with the vcloud Director, but have had a problem that I can't work on it would be really grateful for the help.

    I went through the config VXLAN Vshield Manager and I think it's ok that I can manually create a pool of network a network, create a virtual wire and attach VMs. If everything looks good. My problem is that when I create a provider VDC in Vcloud Director the associated network pool creation always fails. I don't have to provide the exact error message, but it is something in the sense of 'Vcloud Director received an unexpected response or Manager unknown Vshield, see the logs for Vshiled Manager for more information'. I looked in Vshield Manager logs and can't really find something useful, but it is a bit of a nightmare, I can just be looking in the wrong place.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    TIA

    can you confirm/update of credentials here:

    connect to vcloud

    go to list of vCenters manage and monitor

    Right-click the vCenter to that that vShield Manager is associated

    Click on properties

    update the user names and passwords in two tabs

    I have the Eee PC 1000 h running (active) Windows XP Home Edition (Service Pack 3) with OEM product key.
    If I can, can someone please tell me how?

    I'm assuming you're network connection to your XP Pro using the "Remote Desktop connection" machines...  If so, this can be done natively on a XP Home machine as XP Home does not support the remote desktop connection.  XP Home Edition also ensures a file sharing Simple for any user that connects to your computer would be able to authenticate the user "guest".

    There may be other 3rd third-party programs that can allow you to do.

    I am trying to create the shortcut to "change user" using rundll32.exewithout to create the shortcut to "lock", only to pass the user. I already know that I have to right click on an empty space on the desktop, press New\Shortcut and type%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,but not after the comma. Type so I can only create the shortcut to "change user" and not the shortcut to 'lock '?

  • Can I create recovery DVDs after installing Windows XP Home edition?

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300. I formatted the c drive and installed windows xp, but soon I realized that I forgot to create a recovery disk.
    Now the F8 does not work, but the drive d and hddrecovery the folder that contains the files of Toshiba recovery still exists. 3.8 GB of data is located in this folder.

    Is it possible to create a recovery disk now. Thanks already.

    Hello

    Recovery DVDs can be created with the special tool only. The name is Toshiba Recovery creator. This tool is part of the Vista installation only factory settings.

    So now, you can not create recovery media and there is no way to launch the installation of F8 HARD drive recovery. I do not understand why you ignored Toshiba reminder on creating recovery DVDs.
    Anyway, you can order the new copy under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    Bye and good luck!

  • I upgraded my Vista Home premium to windows 7 ultimate, shortcuts on the desktop are not displayed, and can be created, or any folder cannot be created until the flash drive is reinserted

    also all the shortcuts on the desktop are not displayed, and can be created, or any folder cannot be created so that the flash disk is reinserted

    Hi subhshy001,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Windows answers Forum community!

    Try this if you do not have

    Windows Explorer to create the folders and shortcuts in your document folder, drag and drop them on your desktop.

    If you have completed the steps and was not even useful,

    Follow these steps:

    Try to create a shortcut and sending it on the desktop.

    (1) open: Start Menu ,.
    (2) right-click: Internet Explorer icon .
    (3) select: send to > desktop (create shortcut).

    There should be a shortcut on the desktop .

    Make sure that the "show desktop icon" has a check against it

    OR

    Just click on the empty part of the desktop, choose new > then select the folder to create. Right click on this folder , select Rename it.

    If the steps above do not work then:

    You can scan your computer for malware.

    You can download, install and update anti-malware free of your favorite search engine and find malware.

    If the scan comes back clean, so I recommend doing a System File Checker too l to analyze your OS system files.

    To help resolve this problem, use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt . To do this, click Start , click principally made programs , Accessories , right-click guest , and then click run as administrator .  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow .
    2. type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow (Yes there is a space after sfc) the sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions. This analysis do take some time to complete.
