Share stuff with all your friends
How to set up network sharing in Windows 10 and share files and folders between computers. It’s that easy!
A homegroup in Windows makes it easier to share files and printers on a home network. You can share photos, music, videos, documents, and printers with other people in your homegroup. As a security measure, other people cannot change the files you share unless you give them permission to do so.
When you set up a computer running Windows, a HomeGroup is automatically created if one does not already exist on your home network. I assume you already have an existing HomeGroup on one of your Windows computers. If a HomeGroup already exists, you can join it and that is really your only option.
The only problem is if the original computer is now gone and you no longer have the password to join the homegroup. If you have another computer that has already been added to that homegroup, you can view the password by following the instructions below. If not, I will mention how to create a new homegroup to replace an old one.
