I couldn't say - I've never used a homegroup

As for the mapped drive thing, I assume you weren't running Windows 8 on your pi. The situation arises when a windows machine tries to see shares on another windows machine, both machines are at 8 or above and the one you're logged on to is using a Microsoft account (koswix@outlook.com etc.) as a user ID.

Ah. What if both have logged in with an Ms account.

If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.

Again, I don't know because I haven't tried.

Is there a reason you don't use home groups? I switched it on as soon I got windows 7, it makes windows to Windows networking a lot easier/more reliable.

Because I had XP and Linux running with Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 (and a bit of Android and whatever crap all the other toys use) and it all worked fine. Then when I rebuilt the XP box and put Windows 7 on it, it still worked fine, so I didn't bother with homegroups because I didn't think it was a good idea to poke at a network that worked. I only had a problem when I put Windows 10 onto the Windows boxes and the account thing kicked in.

I just rebooted my laptop, first time since installing WinX. My usual password didn't log me in. Realised it had decided to use my Hotmail as the user account. I use KeePass for Hotmail passwords so had to find my silly long password on my phone.

And I noticed some strange things happening like the icons in the taskbar being hidden my the Cort Ana and task buttons but that was due to still having Start8 installed.
