This has seriously got me scratching my head. I have a Homegroup set up for the computers in the house and it has worked flawlessly for a long time, even after I installed Win10 on my machine (all others are Win7). Starting a few weeks ago it went all to feces.
As of right now the Homegroup shows two computers (wife's and mine) in it where it should show four (MiL's and media center as well as the other two but MiL's is probably asleep). Network shows four (me, wife, media center, and wireless printer).
If I try to access what is shared on my wife's computer through the Homegroup I get a message that it is unavailable. Part of the message: "If the location is on a network, make sure you're connected to the network or Internet, and then try again. Accessing it though the network only gets you the public user but nothing else that is shared.
If I try to access the media center through the network I get a Windows Security popup to enter network credentials but there are no network credentials.
All I can think of that has happened was maybe some MS update to Win10, or something was changed when I cleaned my PC from an AnonimyzerGadget infection (used Zemana (still using), AdwCleaner, HitmanPro and followed directions from here).
Hit me with what you've got because I haven't found anything online that has helped.
