• HP ENVY 700-059c: 10 Windows cannot set up a homegroup on this computer

  The message I get when I try to put in place a homegroup on this computer is "Windows cannot configure a homegroup on this computer". I tried everything that was suggested on troubleshooting of the forums that I searched the web on this problem but without success. I am trying to create a network with your computer and a Dell 64 bit of Windws 10 laptop.
  Two computers on the same workgroup and I can set up a homegroup on the Dell, but when I try to join the homegroup on the HP I get the same error message. It has been suggested that I have delete the Group residential Dell and put in place a new homegroup on the HP, but HP won't let me set up a new group of residential. Where am I wrong?

  As I said in my last post, I had no chance to get all of my network to the top, but after going through the fixes proposed by WAWood I realized that fixation on the establishment of a group residential wasn't getting me anywhere. I decided to search the web forums for a solution for the operation of "Peer Networking Grouping" of service, something I had not been able to do (strangely enough by clicking on the button 'Start' a billion times has absolutely nothing) since this mess began. Here are the procedures that seemed most likely to have success. First test was to change the registry using a suggestion of:

  Modify the key to register IPv6 to enable IPV6
  ==========================
  a. Click Start, type regedit in the search bar and then click regedit in the list programs.
  Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
  b. look for, and then click the following registry subkey:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\TCPIP6\Parameters
  c. check whether the "DisabledComponents" registry key exists. If so, move on the next steps.
  d. double-click "DisabledComponents" registry key and change the value to 0.
  (If the key does not exist, please create the above key and assign a value of 0)
  e. exit the registry editor and then restart the computer.

  So far no change. On the next dose of:

  1. from the high CMD prompt, type the following command:

  net stop p2pimsvc /y

  2 delete the following file:

  'C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking\idstore.sst '.

  3. restart the computer.

  These two patches, apparently has not changed anything, but when I went back to Services and double clicked on grouping network of peers, and then clicked on the 'Connect' tab I found that the "Local System account" is selected and the box "Allow service to interact with desktop" was checked. Since I knew my many visits in this tab that it wasn't the way it was configured initially, I checked the properties of the service directly under it (Peer Networking Identity Manager) the tab 'Connect' showed that this account has been selected, and the term "Local Service" was in the right text box to the right of this account. In the two boxes just below this text box were two boxes labeled password and confirm password boxes contained 14 points. I decided it looked a lot like what I remember that the log on tab of the properties of "Peer Networking Grouping" dialog box has been initially configured. I returned to the journal of Peer Networking Grouping tab and made properties the following steps.

  Chose "This account" and deselect "Local System account".

  "Local Service" text typed into the text box next to "this account".

  Delete all the points in the 'Password' and 'Confirm password' boxes

  Clicked on apply

  Clicked on the tab general and click the button start (Yay he actually started)

  Restarted the computer

  From there on, I was able to set up a homegroup, and then I was able to reach him this homegroup on my laptop connected wireless and viola, I have a network.

  Thanks to WAWood for set me on the path to try to get the 'Peer Networking Grouping' service running as my ultimate goal.

• Adding disk hard BIOS setting

  I added the 1 TB SATA drive.

  Now things are going wrong after reboot without initial flaw. No USB, slow performance. Starts at W8.1, but something wrong with the USB devices.

  I see a short menu at startup. says press ctrl-I to define the two hard drives. However, this brings me to any hardrive settings.

  I looked in the BIOS setting and the disks are configured in RAID. Is it OK? I haven't changed anything!

  Thanks, nice to hear that my settings are good. FYI the SATA drive was an ext SATA disk with only data, not bootable. I'm not going to change anything more. However the Sharkoon had a USB connection too that I had to use when my system recovery with Norton disk recovery disc. But the last time was already a long time and now I have True Image as a backup utility.

  But end good all good.

  Thanks again for your support in this matter.

• Unable to set up the homegroup

  Original title: Windows 7 2 cards NETWORK Homegroup

  Hello

  I thought it would be simple to the twenty-FIRST century.

  I have computer with Windows 7. and I just bought a second computer with Windows 8.1.

  The windows 7 computer is connect via USB > USB to ethernet adapter > internet broadband.

  The computer windows 7 and the windows 8.1 computer of are connected by an ethernet cable.

  The internet connection was put in common (and I could connect to the internet with the windows PC 8.1) but I have disabled this all by searching for a solution.

  I thought it would be simple.

  Windows 7 is connected to the internet and I put the Ethernet between the two computers in a homegroup.

  Well well... None. So if anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated.

  OK, let's start with the base.

  On windows 7 PC I have 2 networks.

  One is the connection to the internet, I put it in the public (like the internet seems a very public place for me ;-).

  The other connection is to connect to the computer of windows 8. It is an unidentified network (public).

  I have a feeling that this is where the problems start.

  So thank you once again for any poniters or tips!

  S.

  Thank you for your time.

  I found the following solution:

  Network XP and windows 7 - "limited or no connectivity."

  With setting the default gateway and others, the connection of the second NETWORK card after unidentified network and I could now change the type of audience at home.

  Make a homegroup and then went smooth.

• Windows cannot set up a homegroup on this computer.

  All computers running Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit systems.  Office of origin created homegroup connected by ethernet to the router. have been connected to the homegroup on another computer in the office connected with netgear system; two laptop computers were connected wireless.  Now have a third laptop and unable to connect to the homegroup.  Has a linksys e2000 router.  Norton 360 for two years were released.  Have deleted and restarted homegroup; disabled norton firewall and virus protection on computers with no luck.  All computers have different names. Uninstalled the file listed in some post about homegroups.  Help, please.

  Hi all

  I fixed it.  Just so you know, the only thing I did was to connect the new computer laptop into the router with the ethernet cable, is gone in the homegroup settings, set the password, and it took.  I then unplugged the Ethernet and everything remained the same on WiFi.  I have nothing else to other computers; I don't have to disable or uninstall Norton 360.

  I hope this helps others.  Thank you all for good want to try to help.  I appreciate your time and efforts.

• My hard drives set properly?

  Had this new computer about 10 days. I'm having a hard time with application of landfills on the desktop, complete system freezes and system of discharges for blue screen and am currently waiting for replacement memory (I don't think that's the problem) but we'll see.

  My specs are lower but my question is:

  My readers are marked in Windows Explorer and system information such as:

  2 DATAPART1 (D) 298 GB free 298 GB... D drive... why is nothing indicated thereon?

  3 RECOVERY (E) 5.02 GB free of 9.99 GB... Drive E

  Is there a reason it shows like this (a quirk Raid 0)? Is this a misconfiguration of my hard drives? Is - hard drive player average does not work? Looking for answers and only want to ensure that this is legitimate and I don't understand because I'm a NOOB: smileywink:

• Need help setting up a database, I think.

  Hi people,

  I wonder if anyone can offer suggestions on how to implement something like this:

  I build and maintain a site for a group of companies which has regular lunch requiring meetings to make reservations participants. We would like to move to a system whereby atendees may RSVP for a meeting online (simple form to e-mail?), but then this booking information follow these steps:

  They would like to RSVP info go automatically into a spreadsheet that can be viewed online by members of the association. These members would like to be able to check the participants as they arrive for the meeting, and also take note of any no-show. They would also be able to send a report by e-mail the presenters to varoius with the list of participants and their contact information.

  Can I make a form - email, but getting into what I described above can be above the level of quality and skills my salary. Any suggestions on how to achieve these goals would be greatly appreciated. I don't know if it of a datbase thing or not and I don't know if there are others who could manage the end of the requirements.

  Thanks in advance.

  John

  Database, Yes.  And you need a reservation script in a programming language supported by your server.

  It uses PHP 5.0 + and MySql 4.1 +.

• Setting up Lightroom to store photos on external hard drive

  I have a MacBook Pro with a solid state drive that does not have enough space to store my photos, so I want to put all my photos on a small 2 TB external HD Question: when I import my pictures from the camera card into Lightroom, how can I put and keep all the photos on the external hard drive? Can you please tell me how I created the HD to make...! I know that this probably isn't difficult, but I want to do it properly. Thanks a lot for your help.

  Setting up an external hard drive is really very simple, I think. Of course, it must be connected to your computer. When you open the import dialog box and begin to set up your preferences, you should see the external hard drive as one of your choices. You can select the external hard drive, and then choose to import your images into a subfolder that will appoint you. Then all you have to do is to import the images and they will be exported to the external hard drive.

  I connect the vCenter and can run commands very well...

  I use the following commands in the process:

  I have tryied somehow different to specify the disk hard but without success... always get these errors of messages...

  any help, please.

  The cmdlet Set-HDD wants something, such that returned by Get - hard drive to the hard drive setting.

  Easier is to use the pipeline (see also example 1 on the hard disk-Get help).

• How to share files between Win 7 computers in the same workgroup without set up homegroup?

  How to share files between computers to win 7 in the same workgroup, without setting up any homegroup?

  We tried to avoid putting in place the homegroup. Because we fear us will not be able to share files between win 7 homegroup computers and Vista & XP?

  Thank you.

  Ok. We got it to work.

  In the folder tab property shares.

  Click on 'Share' - choose people to share with, click on the drop down tab, select 'All', click 'Add', in the table below, to the right of everyone, click on the "Permission level", we choose 'read '. Then, in the background, we click on "share". The next dialog box is 'your folder is shared', click 'done '.

  Click on 'Advanced sharing', [x] check share this folder. Click on 'OK '.

  Then, click on 'OK' to the folder property.

  Then, your folder is shared on your network working group of Win 7.

  But I want to start moving just a svmotion operation at a time.

  How could I get the id of the task of the vcenter svmotion operation initiated by game-hard drive, so that I can use wait-job to wait to complete the svmotion operation to start the following?

  any idea of... tips are welcome...

  Hello

  Welcome to the VMware communities.

  The cmdlet Set - hard drive doen't have a parameter - RunAsync, as for example, the Move-VM cmdlet. This means that the each hard drive Set command must finish before the next command can begin. To this effect, you don't have to perform the synchronization of tasks yourself when you use the cmdlet Set-hard drive.

• Cannot delete network homegroup sharing

  OK, so it's kinda an interesting question!

  I have set up a homegroup between 2 computers, a Media Center machine and a laptop.

  On the Media Center machine, I shared a number of records.  These files were shared in two different ways.  Some while allowing sharing (right click, properties, advanced sharing, share this folder), but it has been shared by selecting share with homegroup (read).

  Everything was great (if messy!)!  But then I decided that with an upgrade to the machine I untangle all sharing and do it correctly by adding files to libraries and shared libraries.  During the upgrade, I installed a new hard drive and I changed the drive letter for the drive where all actions were located (beginning of the problem).

  None of the actions now work (although they do not appear on the laptop and in the network section of the Explorer on the media center).  Unfortunately, I found that I could not remove actions!  Right click on a share in the area of the network of the Explorer (on the media center), properties, advanced sharing and by disabling the action results in an error dialog when you click OK, because windows can not find!  The only way I got it was round to recreate the dummy files with the same names as before so that windows can 'find' and then remove the share.  This problem has been compounded by the fact that you can't 'see' where the hand actually points to.

  In any case, after a bit of work it solved all the shares outside the residential group.  Because it exists only in the homegroup to explore section (for some reason any not in Network Explorer - I do not know why) I can't right click and share it.  If I create a new folder with the same name in the old location and share it, it creates an additional share, and BOTH list the contents of this folder.  But if I cancel it then only the part newly created disappears.

  I guess that windows must maintain a list of stocks homegroup somewhere.  I searched the registry with the name of the folder, but I don't find anything (I think - it has references, but I think that these search indexes).  If someone could give me an idea what to do or where search I would really appreciate (I have been at this for a few days now!).

  This shouldn't be too difficult. Try this:
  1 boot safe mode with networking.
  2. log on as an administrator.
  3. click on start.
  4. type the three letters cmd in the search box.
  5. press on Ctrl + Shift + Enter
  6. click on "run as Administrator".
  7. type the following commands:
  net share
  This command shows you the names of all the actions that you created.
  net share "users" /d
  This command removes the 'Users' share (which was created automatically by the homegroup)
  Continue like this until you have removed all the unwanted shares.
