Homegroup insanity - one way only
I have gone through the forums, tried multiple things to get this damned homegroup to work to no avail. Please help!
Setup:
Brand new lenovo laptop with Win7 home premium
Desktop with win7 professional - fresh install
uverse router
Both computers can connect to the homegroup no problem.
Desktop (pro) can see the files and folders on the Lenovo through homegroup
The laptop (home prem) can see the desktop's homegroup folders, but when I double click, it won't allow me in.
This one way direction is useless for what I am trying to do. I want to be able to stream video from the desktop to the laptop.
One thing that I thought could be causing the issue is the same user name that I had on both computers, so I changed the username on one of the computers and it still didn't work. I even removed passwords on both computers, still nothing.
I am pretty sure it is the win7pro computer that is blocking something. Any ideas? Help!
Thanks
