kuakua2 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hello,I have windows 8.1 and I tried to create Homegroup,but the only option I have is "join" and when I want to join it asks me for a password, but I didn't set a password and I don't know how to find it.According to windows THIS computer is the manager of the homegroup but I didn't actually create one.How can I solve that problem? Thank you in advance!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 If a Homegroup already exists, then that is the reason. Excellent guide here:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/homegroup-help#homegroup-start-to-finish=windows-81&v1h=win81tab1&v2h=win7tab1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuakua2 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have already read that guide,the problem is that I can't create a new Homegroup and don't know how to find the password for the exist one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you not ask the owner of the group? Is it not one to which you are permitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuakua2 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I have no idea how this group was created. It says the owner is this computer but on the other hand it says that I am not in a group and when I want to join it asks for a password.(on this computer)I really don't know how to solve it...

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Any other computer on your network part of the homegroup? If so, have them leave the homegroup, and it will disappear. see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/homegroup-frequently-asked-questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
