Click Start, type regedit in Search Bar, and then click regedit in the Programs list.

First try was to modify the registry using a suggestion from:Ī.

The following are the procedures that seemed the most likely to have success. I decided to begin searching web forums for a solution to getting the service “Peer Networking Grouping” running, something I had not been able to do (Strangly enough clicking on the “Start” button a billion times did absolutely nothing) since this whole mess started. You can try by clicking Start the HomeGroup troubleshooter option again on homegroup window too.As I said in my last post, I was having no luck getting my network set up, but after going through the fixes suggested by WAWood I realized that fixating on setting up a Homegroup was not getting me anywhere. Note: If you still fail to leave the homegroup with above approach, try to rename the following file and try again. If you can only see HomeGroup Provider service, stop this service and try to leave the homegroup. Note: Please note you can only see HomeGroup Listener service if you do not log on as administrator. I’ve faced this problem recently and this is what I did, you can try if you have some problem too:ġ) As usual, go to Start and click on Control Panel.Ģ) Control Panel window will appear, click on System and Security.ģ) Proceed to click on Administrative Tools.Ĥ) Double click on Services in Administrative tools window.ĥ) Locate following 2 services, right click each service and then stop it, after that try to leave homegroup again.

Anyway, if you have not tried, you should use homegroup troubleshooter ( Start the HomeGroup troubleshooter option) to troubleshoot the problem first before trying the options shown below.

I don’t quite know why this problem could happen, probably it's due to homegroup service or dll files problem.
