Hi,

I have a home wireless network set up between three computers - 1 desktop
and 2 laptops. They were not mapped correctly - impssible to follow - and I
would like to start from scratch. How do I get rid of all of the existing
network places and workgroups? In other words I'd like to ger back to square
1.

thanks

Click to expand...

To delete everything from My Network Places, click Edit, click Select
All, and press the Delete key.

Set the workgroup name on each computer to whatever you want. It
isn't strictly necessary, but it makes networking a little easier if
you specify the same workgroup name on all computers.

If there are old workgroup names that no longer have any computers,
those names will eventually disappear. There's no specific way to
delete them.
