Q: The two machines at home upgraded to win 7, but want to share resources through the family group, but found that two computers can create a family group, but could not join each other, how can i solve?

A: In the LAN many Win7 system computers are in the normal boot state, this phenomenon first to open the Control Panel/System/Advanced system settings, check these computers are the same device name, such as the same need to rename. Then open the Control Panel/network and Sharing Center, and click the icon under "View active Network" to set the network properties to family. Click Network and Share Center/change advanced sharing settings, enable network discovery and file and printer sharing in home or work (current profile), and turn off password protected sharing if you do not need to access your password. Then check the network and Sharing Center for more "Join Now" button, click this button, follow the instructions to enter another computer on the family group password.

Reasons why the HomeGroup could not be created:

You cannot create a homegroup on a network with a domain, you can only choose to join. If the computers that are disabled for Peer-to-peer network grouping and homegroup providers are not able to create HomeGroup in system services, open Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services, double-click the names of the two services, and then click Start. In addition, the homegroup password can be viewed in the Control Panel/All Control Panel/homegroup/view and print homegroup password.
