cannot enter HOMEGROUP after Build 10565

hey guys,

I am back with some more info. After getting the message that it was impossible to create a Homegroup, i finally
could create one. Joining the Homegroup was impossible.


All of a sudden i could create a Homegroup, but when entering the password i did get the message that another Homegroup was available. Strange from zero to two Homegroups? So since i could not use the last one, i did continue with the first one. Changing the password was the first move, to be sure everyone could join.

And it worked, only...everybody sees 4 computers in the Homegroup, but in the network i can see only 3.

The one i cannot connect to has exactly the same settings has the 2 others.

Strange.

Is the one you can't see the one that created the other homegroup? If it is, try removing it. Who knows ???????
Glad things are improving.
On the other hand, since things improved by themselves, you might just want to be thankful for small mercies and leave well enough alone and in time it might heal itself.

DUFFER

Well Duffer,

I contacted Microsoft and maybe they interfered?

What i did was disconnecting the others from the network, easier than shutdown.

But still, when i was on the network alone and Windows id not give me the Homegroup i created a long time ago, that is strange. When i did get the message that there was NO Homegroup and i could create one, and then all of a sudden i have 2.

One i cannot use and one i can.

I think the bad one is corrupted. Do not know where to find it either.

thanks

Jeff

I will leave it like this right now, i guess MS will make things all right soon.

Well this morning (it is around 9.40 AM here), i only have 2 coputers in the network AGAIN.

But since Build 10576 is installing right now, i am very hopeful that everything will be ok.

Had to remove Bing also on my pc because the Slideshow was not working, as on my wifes computer...

MS asked via mail why i removed Bing.

So my problems right now, unless Build 10576 takes care of them:

Slideshow not working with Bing on computer
Network shows only 2 pc's instead of 4
Cannot see the pictures when extra large icons is selected;

Jeff

ok,

got this from MS (everybody else too?)...

.NET 3.5 Feature on Demand for X64

and now i am back in the network with one other computer, but still missing 2.

Just info.....nobody obviously can help me out here.

Latest news here:

Could not see my own computer in the network, everything is ok in the Homegroup.

Microsoft gave me this:

.NET 3.5 Feature on Demand for X64

Lang Pack (Language Features) Feature On Demand for X64[en-US]

Insider Hub Feature on Demand for X64

Installed yesterday, so november 1st.

Now i have again 2 computers in the network, instead of 4.

I recontacted MS for another solution.

Since Win 10, each of our computers thinks it is on its' own "network". They each have different network names and I can't get an inclusive network map but at least they are all in the same homegroup and can share.
Man, you have the patience of Job ! Best of luck.

Jeff
At last . You were solving network problems while I have been offline for the last 20 hours (watermain construction cut a bunch of phone lines) . C'est la vie !!!!
