  Setting up a shared printer

  "The most common way to make a printer available to a home network is traditionally to connect to one of the computers and then tell Windows to share it. This is called a shared printer.

  The advantage of sharing a printer is that it works with any USB printer. Side tilted? The host computer must always be fed up, otherwise the rest of the network will not be able to access the shared printer. »

  Today, the residential group doesn't work - the two machines cannot see each other and the router & printer is found on the new machine.

  As the router is not here I can't access the internet or e-mail.

  Homegroup is not available until the sharing is complete"is on the screen for 3.5 hours and I am unable to do anything at all with the homegroup settings.

  Can someone help me please?

  Hello

  I think that you must make sure that you ve enabled the + network discovery + on all computers.

  Network discovery is a network setting that determines if your computer can find other computers and devices on the network and whether other computers on the network can see your computer.
  By default, Windows Firewall blocks network discovery, but you can activate it.

  Here's how a nice HowTo from Microsoft to the + enable or disable network discovery.

  Try to go to control panel > network and Internet > network and sharing Center and then click the icon in the form of House directly below the words 'Show your active networks' - Note that you must click on the icon, not the name of the blue network.  Which will make appear a "Set network properties" dialog box and includes a "merger or clear location network 'choice left."  Maybe it's one of the things most well hidden in Windows 7!

• Network and home group

  Hi all

  I'm not a very experienced computer user.

  I use a home wireless network.  I have a main PC and a laptop computer on the wireless network and that you can see them both to explore.  I have put in place the PC and the laptop the same and I am the administrator on both.

  Two questions: -.

  1. Why can't I just cut and past the network when the laptop?  At the moment I can only open and save documents on the laptop.

  2. I created a homegroup on the PC and printed the password.  When I go to laptop and click on join the homegroup, the wizard appears and asks password.  I enter this and click Next.  I get the message following "bethis computer may not join the homegroup"  Why is this?  Can anyone help?  Thank you

  Hello

  May be there is a hardware problem that would make any attempt to address the
  problem with the software impossible. And often difficult to determine.

  If you have tried these methods including restarting without results, then having a
  Experienced store discover systems seems to be a good shot.

• I try to get online with a home group

  Original title: homegroup

  I try to get online with a home group. My system works with my group?

  Hi Babbleson,

  1. who is the operating system installed on the computer?

  2. what happens when you try to create a home group?

  A homegroup is a group of computers on a home network that can share files and printers. With the help of a group residential allows for easier sharing. You can share photos, music, videos, documents, and printers with other people in your homegroup.

  PCs must be running Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows RT or to participate in a homegroup. Homegroup is available in all editions of Windows 7 and Windows 8.

  You can read this article for more information:

• How do I find my username to the home group so IO accesses files on my PC from my computer laptop win.7

  How can I find my username at my home group so that I can access files on my PC from my laptop - Windows PC Windows7 10

  1 2 profiles are used because you can assign two different levels of access to files, read-only and read/write.

  Recommended for networks Windows is to assign rights to a group rather than an individual user. This way you can give any number of users the same rights by placing them in a particular group. Not quite relevant in a homegroup but in a domain where users come and go, change roles etc. it makes it easy to manage. So, we have two groups and two users to place in these groups. You can see the mechanism in action by looking at security settings for one of the shared folders.

  In a workgroup environment basis with say 5 PCs with each having their own main user who is 5 user accounts. For all users to access files on other computers of their own this means that not only the user account must exist on their own PC, but it must be created on all other PCs. This includes management so if a user changes his password on his PC then it must go around each of the other PC and change the password on those, otherwise he will be denied access.

  HomeGroup avoids this by creating an additional user that exists on all PCs and has the same password in all of the group because it is defined in the configuration of the homegroup. Although the primary user on a PC is refused by another PC, it will accept the credentials of the user to the homegroup. Which of the two is accepted depends on the required access.

  Thus, although the mechanism seems a bit complicated (and there is more than that) there is a logic to it.

• Get the error code 651 when connecting to the home group

  Original title: network query

  I am trying to connect PC (Win7 Ultimate with all the updates and I have installed Sp1) to a homegroup that my surface pro4 (Win10) opened. I get error 651 and I can not now clear homegroup even by using the Troubleshoot utility. Help, please

  Hello Kurt.

  Thanks for posting that ask you about Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, you found the 651 error when you plug the system windows 7 on a home group.

  First of all, make sure that:

  • Both systems must have a unique name.
  • Both systems need to have the same time and date.
  • Some antivirus/security programs may block or cause network problems.

  As you already ran her convenience store. I suggest to follow the methods below and check if that helps.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable security software

  Temporarily disable the security software and check if the problem persists.

  WARNING: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  If the problem persists, try Method 2,

  Method 2: Disable IPv6 for your connection

  You can do it by the separation of the adapter in the local area network connection properties dialog box:

  1. Click Startand then click Control Panel.

• Win 7 does not recognize that I am connected to my home wireless network.

  Recently, I upgraded my desktop and my laptop at home to Win 7. I'm trying to set up a home network, but on my laptop, I can't change my home network location. Even though my laptop is connected to the internet via my wireless router, Windows don't think that I'm connected to a network. When I click on "connect to a network", it shows that I am connected to my wireless router. When I try to set up a home network on the laptop, it tells me I need to change the network location of the Public at home, but since he did not think that I am connected, it will not allow to do me this.  I searched the internet and worked through it for hours, but can't seem to find a solution to this problem. Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  I had this same problem.  I have a home group on my desktop running win 7 64 bit.  My laptop (win 7 64 bit) could not connect because the internet connection was showing pubic hair and I couldn't change it.  Here's what I did.  I deleted all my networks and groups off the laptop computer.  I restarted my laptop.  On my desktop, I went into Control Panel, home group and consulted my password.  I also need my wep key of wireless network.

  To better understand, my wireless network name is cleopatraiz

  On my laptop, I went into the wireless network connections through the status bar at the bottom right which displays all networks wireless scope.  I clicked on my wireless (cleopatraiz) and it prompted for the wep key.  I entered that and then I went into newwork & Sharing Center, was now showing my active network as cleopatriz, I clicked on choose home group and sharing options and joined using my password of the Group House of desktop computers.  It worked.
