    Solved it myself by editing group policies. Though why the default behavior is to disable all notices, and lock the selection is beyond me.

    My apologies. I left out a few key words. When Windows 8 first launched, Windows 7 and Windows 8 homegroups could not talk to each other. That was fixed later, so hopefully we'll have a solution in...
