  2. No other homegroup PCs are available right now

    We have setup a Homegroup on Computer1 and are trying to join it with Computer2.

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Open Control Panel > Network and Internet > HomeGroup.
    2. Click Join now.
    3. In the Join a Homegroup Wizard, type the password.
    4. Click Next then Finish.
    5. Close the Control Panel and open File Explorer.
    6. In the Navigation Panel, click Homegroup.
    7. Wait about 1 minute while a "Working on it..." message displays.
    8. See the following message:

    No other homegroup PCs are available right now.

    Make sure that:

    • The other homegroup PCs are awake and connected to the network.
    • All the PCs in your homegroup have sharing turned on.
    • The other homegroup PCs have the current homegroup password.
    • Other people in your homegroup are sharing libraries with the homegroup.

    We have made sure that all of the above criteria are true.

    The Fix

    Create a brand new homegroup, because the existing one was corrupted.

    Steps

    On both computers:

    1. Leave the homegroup.
    2. Delete everything inside C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking.
    3. Turn off the computer.

    Now that both computers are off:

    1. Turn on one computer.
    2. Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Homegroup.
    3. Click the "Create a homegroup" button and follow the steps.

    Now that you have a new homegroup:

    1. Turn on the second computer.
    2. Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Homegroup.
    3. Click the "Join now" button and follow the steps.

    Notes

    • If you do not see the "Create a homegroup" button, then this process is not working and you will need to try something else.
    • This process also works to delete (and recreate) a homegroup that contains computers that you no longer have.

    HomeGroup sharing stability

    Thanks for updating us on the result of recreating the homegroup network. SInce the issue is still occurring, we suggest that you follow the steps below to run the automated homegroup troubleshooter available in Windows 10:

    • Press the Windows key + X to open the quick link menu and from the list of options select
      Control Panel.
    • Once Control Panel is open, select Network and Internet
      from the options provided.
    • Under Network and Internet select the option HomeGroup and then on the lower portion look for the option labeled " Start the HomeGroup troubleshooter".
    The automated troubleshooter will detect errors within the homegroup and attempt to automatically correct any error that can cause the homegroup network to not function as intended.

    We look forward to your response once you complete the steps.
