• 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.

• After running System Restore my computer asks for a password when connecting and I don't remember the password.

  I am running Vista Home Premium on a laptop Toshiba Satellite L305.  I ran the system restore due to a problem of "Internet Explorer cannot display the website" (by Microsoft troubleshooting guide for this problem) and selected restore point earlier.  Now the computer asks for a password that I don't remember.  I tried all the possible passwords I can think.   There is only a single user account on this computer.  The administrator account should be disabled, it is not an option when connecting safe mode.  I don't have a system repair disc set.   Is it possible to run the system back restore to select a more recent restore point which does not require a password?  Or y at - it another way to connect to the computer?

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/undo-system-restore

  If you tried to use the system restore to solve a problem, but the problem remained or other problems were introduced, you can undo the restore operation. After you cancel the system restore, you can try using a different restore point.
