    This also same as the creation of the Homegroup. Follow the above procedure to open up the Homegroup. Now there instead of the Create homegroup button you will get the Join Now button click on that. On the next window select the file that you need to share and click on the next. Now enter the password that you have created for the use of the Homegroup and click on the next. Now you have successfully joined in the homgroup. Now you can access the file and printer on the network.

    As you have created the network now you can share the file on the homegroup. You can also share the printer for the use of the printing of the document from the network computer. You can add more then one computer to the homegroup with the above given method. You can also leave the homegroup any time when you wish to. For leaving of the homegroup you have to go through the link given below.

    HomeGroup makes it easy to share pictures, music, documents, videos, and printers with other people on your home network. When you set up a computer with this version of Windows, a homegroup is created automatically. But you can also create a homegroup by following these steps:
    1. Open HomeGroup by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, typing homegroup in the search box, and then clicking HomeGroup.
    2. On the Share with other home computers running Windows 7 page, click Create a homegroup, and then follow the instructions.
