  • Cannot join or leave the homegroup

    I tried to create a homegroup, so that I can use my laptop in another room via an ethernet cable. I wrote the first password, but when I went to 'continue', he said that it was false. I could not leave or join the network. Now I can't access my printer from my PC or laptop. I tried several times the system recovery, but that did not work. I got a new password of grouphome, but it does not, either. Each time I try to leave the grouphome, he says I have to join first, but does not accept the new password, so that I can't reach. If I am not a member, I can't leave. I can't remove the grouphome, either.

    How can I access my printer again? BTW, I use a mouse, not some

    "creep" of something, I don't know what.

    Hello

  • Residential group number! I can't change the password or leave the group. Convenience store can not solve the prob

    I did a clean install of OS win7 ultimate. If I try to change the PW, it says that windows cannot configure a homegroup on this computer... but still, he said that this computer belongs to a homegroup. If I try to leave the homegroup, it says windows could not remove the computer from the group. Troubleshooting, declare that the Peer Name Resolution Protocol service or peer network identity Manager is not open. If I go in services, it shows that the NIBPM is automatic and the PNRP protocol is manual. If I try to start the PNRP protocol, it is said that windows didn't start the service because of the error code # 0 x 80630801. Peer Networking Grouping also gets error code # 1068.

    Hello

    On the Start Menu, open the control panel and open Folder Options.  Click on the view tab, check the radio button titled "Show hidden files, folders and drives" and out the box "Hide extensions of known file types".  Click on apply to apply these changes.

    Then go to C\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming to Local disk and open the PeerNetworking folder.  Inside, you should see a file called idstore.sst.  Delete this file.  Close this window and return to Folder Options then re - hide hidden files folders and drives and extensions of known file types.

    Restart the PC and let Windows load completely.

    Now, check if the following services appear as shown below, and if they are not, if you can set them up now.

    Peer Networking Grouping this should see the service type as Manual and the service is expected to show that started.

    HomeGroup Provider should show as Manual startup type, and the service should show as started.

    Peer name resolution should see commissioning type as Manual and the service is expected to show that started.

    Peer Networking Identity Manager should display type as Manual startup and service should show as started.

    If they are all able to start, or have already started, see if Homegroup now works properly.

    Kind regards

  • Homegroup asking "Network password" when access to the computers in the homegroup

    I noticed this in the last week or two.  So far, my home group has worked very well.

    I have 2 PC under Windows 7 connected via homegroup, a x 64 final running, the other under Home Premium x 64.  The Home Premium computer is now asked a "network password" then access folders/libraries shared the ultimate computer.  It wasn't a problem before last week.  Until a week ago, I could just click on my homegroup from the Home Premium computer, then click the name of the ultimate computer that appears in the homegroup and finally click on shared folders/libraries and it will open the folder/library.

    Parameters are,

    • Advanced network and sharing Options are all set by default on both including letting Windows HomeGroup connections.
    • Network location is defined on each home.
    • The homegroup password is the same on each.
    • Credential Manager shows [ComputerName] \HomeGroupUser$, correct password and persistence is on each Local computer.
    • The two computers are connected wireless 802.11 g via a Linksys WRT400N router, each using a dynamic IP (DHCP) address.

    Therefore, I can access files/libraries shared the Home Premium to ultimate PC homegroup without being prompted to enter a password for the 'network '.  I can access internet from every computer with no problems.

    I tried to leave the homegroup on each computer, recreated on each homegroup, deleted the files IDStore.sst on each, all to nothing does not.  Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    Well, I seem to have perhaps fallen on something that may have solved my problem, at least for now.  This morning, I've renamed the full name of the computer to my Home Premium by removing 1 character of existing name.  Of course, I was invited to restart for the changes to take effect.  I restarted and then on the next opening of the next session, I renamed full name of the computer to my Home Premium to what it was originally.  Once, I have been asked to restart for the changes to take effect.  After the reboot, I clicked on my homegroup, and from there I clicked on my ultimate computer that appears in my homegroup.  To my surprise, the shared library icons have been restored to their default appearance; documents, music, photos and video.  I clicked on each of the four libraries and each opened with full (default read-only) access to the content of each library.  I was not invited to a "network password" this time!

    If renaming the name of my Home Premium computer twice, once to a new name and then again its original name did somehow fix the problem, this means that the share of aid to the full name of the computer had some kind become corrupted the previous week?  This could be the reason for the "Network password" prompt?  In any case, my home group is once more working properly between computers in my Home Premium and Ultimate.  Touch wood.

  • Problems to join the homegroup.

    Hello, I installed windows 7 Professional on 2 PCs at my home. I need to work with the networking of the homegroup. I tried to create the network in both computers, but the other do not recognize when I try to join the homegroup. I tried solving the problems in both computers, but nothing happens. I changed the name of the Working Group, but the problem is still there. I tried everything I had read in the forums, but nothing happens. I would be happy if you could help me.

    PS: Sorry if my English is not the best

    Hi Dmpalma.

    This is a doc that might help you: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Why-can-t-I-join-a-homegroup

    Other things to try:

    1. ensure that your computers have different computer names.
    2. try to leave the homegroup on both computers, restart both computers, and then start again (create the homegroup on one computer, and then join him another computer)

  • Cannot join the homegroup to the second computer in the network.

    I've recently updated my desktop pc and laptop with windows 7.  The office is a s 530 Dell Inspiron and the laptop is a Dell Inspiron 15.  The Office has managed to create a homegroup in windows 7, but I can't get the laptop to join.  I ran the wizard of troubleshooting many times without success.  Sharing files between computers is available, I can't just join the homegroup.  I have read several forums about ipv6, and although it shows that IPv6 is enabled, the status shows no network access.  I tried to leave the homegroup, stop and begin another without success as well.  Router is a Belkin N1 Vision 802.11n.  I can follow directions very well, but I'm not a genius with this stuff.  If there is something that I should be more specific, please let me know.  I'm going crazy here.

    OK, that was my answer.  I have connected the laptop in the server and was immediately allowed to join the homegroup.  Once the initial installation has been made, I can now access homegroup wireless on the network without any problems.  I don't know why I had to connect using ethernet to set up.  New bug in the OS, I guess.  Thanks for the help.

  • I have problems to access the homegroup on one of my computers networked

    I can't access the homegroup on one of my computers networked: I can't view/print the password or leave the homegroup.

    The homegroup listener service is not running and does not start; It depends on the Server service which does not also.

    All the services depends on "Server" are running, while I find not all controls bound to the drivers SMB or srvnet.

    The error message when the Server service or the HomeGroup listener is tempted to start is:
    Error 1068: The dependency service or group could start.

    Thank you very much, Jack MVP.  I downloaded and installed ServiWin as directed by your recommendation.

    It showed me that the server SMB 1. XXX driver (srv.sys) was not working.  I then used the 'Google - executable name' search option from right-click menu.

    This showed me in turn to the web page of "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2473205" entitled: "list of currently available patches for technologies in Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 file Services.

    In this page, I found a section entitled SRV component with a link to the article 2625434 knowledge base: "http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=2625434&kbln=en-us."

    This allowed me to download an a security update that contains the latest version of the srv.sys.  Installation of this repaired my faulty installation of the SMB 1. XXX driver.

    This then allowed me to do things like "View the HomeGroup Password" and "Leave the HomeGroup" that I couldn't do before.

    I was then able to join the homegroup, and after restarting, become visible to my laptop.

    I then told the phone leaving the homegroup and then join and now computers are visible to each other.

    All Windows 7 computers on my home network are now visible to the other in the homegroup.

  • Reset the password of the homegroup?

    I just did a few upgrades (no change to HDs), C: formatted, installed Win 7 Home Premium, but ignored (or so I thought) homegroup Setup during the installation of Win 7.  I have 4 HD, no RAID currently.  I went to setup Homegroup and I "Tell me more about..., change the advanced sharing... and start the HomeGroup trouble..., as wel as join or cancel."  No option to create a new group of residential or change the password.  I have a laptop and a desktop on this residential group and I tried to use passwords of these on my main desktop and it doesn't work.  I want to reset the password or create a new homegroup?

    Thank you!

    Rosh76,

    There are a lot of good information on this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Why-cant-I-create-a-homegroup

    I would like to point out the first step of troubleshooting on this page which is 'a homegroup already exists on the network. If a homegroup already exists, you will be asked to join. "I think that's what you see. If all your computers on the network have not left the old homegroup, you will not be able to create a new.

    The following link teaches how to leave a homegroup: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Leave-a-homegroup

    Hope this helps!

  • Unable to join the homegroup - when you attempt to join I get this message: cannot create a homegroup on this computer

    I tried all the suggested 'fixes' and am still unable to join. My network has worked well until I installed W7. I can create a homegroup on any computer (I have 4 on the network), but no other computers can join. All I get when you are trying to reach is "impossible to create a homegroup on this computer". It is a problen very common, judging from all the complaints I've seen on the forums. With no exaggeration, there are thousands of people are unable to use this 'easy '... home network Please don't tell me to disable my firewall or computer time sync or one of the other "fixes" that do not help.

    Hello

    Since you're so desperate, you can configure the network to the office network.

    It's a little more work than the collective dwelling, but the results are more flexible.

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

    Here you have the whole story because what Win 7 can make wise network.

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

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

    Network of home or work = fundamentally similar (and better) to the previous methods of theWorking Group sharing which 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.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_name.jpg

    Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. 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 you end up with the 3rd party software uninstalled or disabled, make sure that Windows native firewall is active .

    If your network consists only of Win 7 and you want a simple network, use it.

    In the properties

    Click on the Security tab shown in the bellows of the photo on the right) and verify that users and their permissions (see photo below Centre and left) are configured correctly. Then do the same for the authorization tab.

    This screen shot is to Win 7, Vista menus are similar.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/permission-security.jpg

    The Security Panel and the authorization Panel, you need to highlight each user/group and consider that the authorization controls are verified correctly.

    When everything is OK, restart the network (router and computer).

    * Note . The groups and users listed in the screen-shoot are just an example. Your list will focus on how your system is configured.

    ** Note . All the users who are allowed to share need to have an account onall computers that they are allowed to connect to.

    Everyone is an account, that means a group of all users who already have an account now as users. It is available to avoid the need to configure permission for each on its own, it does not mean all those who feel that they would like to connect.
