Hi ,

I was paired up with my laptop and pc using Homegroup, and then i formatted my laptop, and tried to connect it again with my PC, but now the PC doesnt show Homegroup password, nor can i leave homegroup.

This is the annoying feature of windows 7, since i already have set my all network locations as Home Network.

These screenshots are i get after i try to troubleshoot problem.

Can't leave homegroup, because i got error.

You will need to give both your systems new 'names', and create another homegroup.
