Dear All,
I have a XP pro peer to peer network at home. My son came home from
school and was playing with his laptop deleting files. Clever chap
deleted the operating system didn't he! Oh well started a clean install.
All went well. Told the system about the network it was due to join, and
then joined it. Went to share folders and was asked to run the network
connection wizard, so I did. I put in the name of the workgroup, but
jolly old windows renamed it to MSHOME just before I hit the OK key.
This set up the computer in its own little private ptp network of its
own. So using the system icon in control panel I set the computer to
join the home workgroup gain which it did.
I now have two icons for one computer in the view network computers
folder. One works (you can click it and it opens) the other doesn't. How
do you delete the one that doesn't work, and the redundant MSHOME
workgroup icon.
Please advise
