[dba-Tech] Workgroup password

[Arthur Fuller]

Thanks, Lambert. Unfortunately, now I have a deeper puzzle. I tried to join
the homegroup (which was created on my desktop) from my laptop; pasted in
the password, and received the message "Windows can't set up a homegroup on
this computer." I ran the homegroup troubleshooter, which was no help at
all.

The peculiar (well, to me, at least) is that when I run Windows Explorer,
and click Network, I can see the other computer, but I can't access it. I
am asked for a name and password. These are the same on both computers.

Some months back I had this working. But then I had to replace the hard
disk in my laptop and since then, I can't make it work correctly.
