Default Can't change workgroup


I need to change my workgroup name on one computer, but it is stuck on
"WORKGROUP" and it is grayed out. I do have administratior rights, and I can
access the internet though the router, just can't connect to my other
computers.

Do you have group policy applying to the computer?
