  Hi Mike,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question.

  According to the description, it seems that you are facing a problem while leaving the existing homegroup and the creation of a new group of residential.

  This problem could be due to if there are files that are always shared with other computers.

  I suggest to remove the network and then try to leave the homegroup and check if it helps.

  See the following Microsoft article:

  Leave a homegroup: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows7/Leave-a-homegroup

  We would be more than happy to help you if the steps above did not solve the problem.

  Hello

  Only the computer that is running Windows 7 can join Win7 homegroup.

  ---------------------

  Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

  Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

  Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.
  
  Public share = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

  For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

  General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
  Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

• Cannot save files Windows 7, sharing violation excel 2007 - have lost many hours of work that it corrupts the file, after it tried so-called recovered-the same file on the machine xp without problem.

  Cannot save files Windows 7, sharing violation excel 2007 - have lost many hours of work it corrupts files after he supposedly has found and tried the same (copied) files on the machine xp without problem. Also sometimes on the stand alone machine without network and excel files generated on this machine. Any thoughts?

  If you use Internet Security of Trend Micro with Windows 7, this combination is probably what is causing the problem.

  To fix this, open the main Trend Micro Internet Security (or similar). Open the Virus & Spyware controls. Choose the Protection against viruses & Spyware; Click settings, then advanced settings. Uncheck the box next to 'save files before you try to remove the virus '.

  This solved my save all problems in Excel 2007 and Word 2007.
