Если при запуске какой-либо программы, выполнения действия в Windows или при входе в систему вы видите сообщение об ошибке 1068 «Не удалось запустить дочернюю службу или группу», это говорит о том, что по какой-то причине необходимая для выполнения действия служба отключена или не может быть запущена.
В этой инструкции подробно о распространенных вариантах ошибки 1068 (Windows Audio, при подключениях и создании локальной сети и т.п.) и о том, как исправить возникшую проблему, даже если ваш случай не из числа распространенных. Сама же ошибка может появиться в Windows 10, 8 и Windows 7 — то есть во всех последних версиях ОС от Microsoft.
Не удалось запустить дочернюю службу — распространенные варианты ошибки 1068
Для начала о самых часто встречающихся вариантах ошибки и быстрые пути исправить их. Необходимые для исправления действия будут выполняться в управлении службами Windows.
Для того, чтобы открыть «Службы» в Windows 10, 8 и Windows 7, нажмите клавиши Win+R (где Win — клавиша с эмблемой ОС) и введите services.msc после чего нажмите Enter. Откроется окно со списком служб и их состоянием.
Для изменения параметров любой из служб, просто дважды кликните по ней, в следующем окне вы сможете изменить тип запуска (например, включить «Автоматически») и запустить или остановить службу. Если опция «Запустить» не доступна, то сначала нужно изменить тип запуска на «Вручную» или «Автоматически», применить настройки и уже потом запускать службу (но она может не запуститься и в этом случае, если зависима еще от каких-то отключенных в настоящий момент служб).
Если проблема не была решена сразу (или запускать службы не получается), то после изменения типа запуска всех необходимых служб и сохранения настроек попробуйте также перезагрузить компьютер.
Ошибка 1068 службы Windows Audio
Если запустить дочернюю службу не удалось при запуске службы Windows Audio, проверьте состояние следующих служб:
- Питание (тип запуска по умолчанию — Автоматически)
- Планировщик классов мультимедиа (данная служба может отсутствовать в списке, тогда для вашей ОС неприменимо, пропустите).
- Удаленный вызов процедур RPC (по умолчанию — Автоматически).
- Средство построения конечных точек Windows Audio (тип запуска — Автоматически).
После запуска указанных служб и возвращения типа запуска по умолчанию, служба Windows Audio должна перестать выдавать указанную ошибку.
Не удалось запустить дочернюю службу при действиях с сетевыми подключениями
Следующий распространенный вариант — сообщение об ошибке 1068 при каких-либо действиях с сетью: предоставлением общего доступа к сети, настройке домашней группы, подключению к Интернету.
В описываемой ситуации проверьте работу следующих служб:
- Диспетчер подключений Windows (Автоматически)
- Удаленный вызов процедур RPC (Автоматически)
- Служба автонастройки WLAN (Автоматически)
- Автонастройка WWAN (Вручную, для беспроводных подключений и Интернета по мобильной сети).
- Служба шлюза уровня приложения (Вручную)
- Служба сведений о подключенных сетях (Автоматически)
- Диспетчер подключений удаленного доступа (по умолчанию – вручную)
- Диспетчер автоматических подключений удаленного доступа (Вручную)
- Служба SSTP (Вручную)
- Маршрутизация и удаленный доступ (по умолчанию бывает отключена, но попробуйте запустить, может помочь в исправлении ошибки).
- Диспетчер удостоверений сетевых участников (Вручную)
- Протокол PNRP (Вручную)
- Телефония (Вручную)
- Plug and Play (Вручную)
В качестве отдельного действия при неполадках с сетевыми службами при подключении к Интернету (ошибка 1068 и ошибка 711 при непосредственно подключении в Windows 7) можно попробовать следующее:
- Остановите службу «Диспетчера удостоверений сетевых участников» (не меняйте тип запуска).
- В папке C:\ Windows\ serviceProfiles\ LocalService\ AppData\ Roaming\ PeerNetworking удалите файл idstore.sst при его наличии.
После этого перезагрузите компьютер.
Поиск необходимых для исправления ошибки 1068 служб вручную на примере диспетчера печати и брандмауэра
Поскольку все возможные варианты появления ошибки с запуском дочерних служб я предусмотреть не могу, показываю, как можно попробовать самостоятельно исправить ошибку 1068 вручную.
Этот способ должен подойти для большинства случаев появления проблемы в Windows 10 — Windows 7: и для ошибок брандмауэра, Hamachi, диспетчера печати и для других, менее часто встречающихся вариантов.
В сообщение об ошибке 1068 всегда присутствует название службы, вызвавшей эту ошибку. В списке служб Windows найдите это название, после чего кликните по ней правой кнопкой мыши и выберите «Свойства».
После этого перейдите на вкладку «Зависимости». Например, для службы Диспетчер печати мы увидим, что требуется «Удаленный вызов процедур», а для брандмауэра требуется «Служба базовой фильтрации», для которой, в свою очередь, тот же «Удаленный вызов процедур».
Когда необходимые службы стали известны, пробуем включить их. Если тип запуска по умолчанию неизвестен — пробуем «Автоматически» с последующей перезагрузкой компьютера.
Примечание: такие службы, как «Питание» и «Plug and Play» не указываются в зависимостях, но могут быть критичными для работы, всегда обращайте на них внимание при возникновении ошибок запуска служб.
Ну и, если ни один из вариантов не помогает, имеет смысл попробовать точки восстановления (если есть) или другие способы восстановления системы, прежде чем прибегать к переустановке ОС. Тут могут помочь материалы со страницы Восстановление Windows 10 (многие из них подойдут для Windows 7 и 8).

HomeGroup feature, since introduced back in the days, is probably the best way to create a homogenous private network and share your sensitive data between the multiple PCs. A lot of users were enjoying all the benefits of Windows HomeGroup until the Creators Update completely crashed it.
Namely, numerous users reported various issues related to HomeGroup. Some users lost all of the settings, while others are unable to connect to an already created homegroup. To make the things even worse, they were unable to create a new group with a new password or, if they managed to do so, they were incapable of joining.
Luckily, we gave our best to acquire some of the possible workarounds for this issue. So, in case, you have any of the above-mentioned problems, make sure to check out the list below.
How to resolve Homegroup issues after installing Creators Update
Run the Windows Homegroup Troubleshooter
With the Creators Update, Windows 10 received a unified page for troubleshooting. Besides the standard features that may give you a hard time, this list covers some less frequent Windows features. One of those is Homegroup. So, your first step in order to resolve any issues is to use a built-in troubleshooter and hope for the best.
Have in mind that this procedure must be repeated on all of the available PCs that are the part of the network. And this is how to do it:
- Open Windows Settings under Start Menu or press Windows key + I for an instant access.
- Under Settings, open Update & Security.
- Open Troubleshoot from the left pane.
- Scroll down until you reach the HomeGroup.
- Click on HomeGroup and then click on the Run the troubleshooter.
- Now, wait until the troubleshooter scans and hopefully resolve issues.
- On some occasions, it may give you insight into further steps.
If the problem is still persistent, move on to the next steps.
Delete files from the Networking folder
In some cases, a less subtle and more to the point approach is needed. And that brings out the Networking folder and its content. Namely, you may need to delete the shared files that were stored in this folder prior to Creators Update. On some occasions, those can cause an interference and prevent you from establishing the HomeGroup.
Follow these steps in order to delete the files from PeerNetworking folder:
- Navigate to C:\windows\serviceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking.
- Under PeerNetworking folder, delete all files. You can try deleting only the idstore.sst file, but the total wipeout is the better choice.
- Now, go to the Network Settings and leave the pre-created homegroup with all PCs.
- Restart your PCs (all within the group) and disable the connection for all but one.
- Use that one PC to create a new group and save the generated password.
- Connect the remaining PCs, insert the password and you should be good to go.
Allow Full Control to MachineKeys and PeerNetworking folders
Another worthy workaround is related to security and control of certain HomeGroup features. Namely, the latest update may have changed your permissions without your knowledge. Since the service is quite security-sensitive, without the proper permissions, you won’t be able to use it.
But, luckily, there’s a way to take a full control of the HomeGroup features. Follow these instructions to do so:
- Navigate to C:\Program Data\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys.
- Right-click the MachineKeys folder and open Properties.
- Under the Security tab, open the preferred group and click Edit below.
- In the list, select Full Control and confirm changes.
- Now, go to C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking.
- Repeat the procedure that you already used on MachineKeys.
- Do this for all available PCs that are the part of the network.
Roll back to the previous version
At the end, if you’re still unable to resolve homegroup related issues, you have two choices. Either you’ll wait for the official fix for your issue or you can perform a rollback to the previous version. If you’re impatient you can roll back to a previous version and that should hopefully resolve any homegroup related issues.
This is the way to restore your Windows 10 to a previous version:
- Open Windows Settings under Start Menu or press Windows key + I for an instant access.
- Open Updates & security.
- Choose Recovery.
- Click on Get Started under Reset this PC.
- Once you’ve provided mandatory feedback to Microsoft, the roll-back process will start.
- After it’s finished, try connecting to your Homegroup like before the Creators Update.
You may as well try to reinstall the Windows 10 Creators Update, but we are not sure it will serve you right.
Hopefully, Microsoft will address this issue in the upcoming patches. It’s hard to round-up all of the strengths of the Creators Update with the problems like this. Either way, the presented workaround should help you resolve your issues. At least temporarily.
In case you have any suggestions or questions, please share them with our readers in the comments section below.

This is a keeper and thanks Randy! thanks for the quick responce
I made a restore point an put .old at the end of everything in C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking
went to services, started:
Peer Name Resolution Protocol
Peer Networking Grouping
Peer Networking Identity Manager
PNRP Machine Name Publication Service
started fine, went to C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking
and it created:
idstore.sst.new
idstore.sst
9626e…….
so I deleted everything else except those 3 folders in the image that have the red dots, haven’t figured out what they belong to if they even do.
I would like to know the start up type for these 3.
1. Peer Name Resolution Protocol….its set at auto
2. Peer Networking Grouping……….its set at auto
3. PNRP Machine Name Publication Service….its set at manual
Thanks,
Dave

We all know that HomeGroup is very handy feature in Windows to connect different machines for transferring media. But after upgrading to Windows 10, we observed that some users find HomeGroup not functioning properly. According to those who’re facing this problem, they can’t setup new HomeGroup on Windows 10. Here is the error message that appears on the screen while doing so:
Page Contents
Windows can’t set up a homegroup on this computer.
While there are some other users also, who have created HomeGroup on their previous Windows editions (like Windows 7/8/8.1) and after upgrading to Windows 10, the HomeGroup is no longer recognized/detected. Here is the error message appearing in this case:
Windows no longer detects on this network. To create a new homegroup, click OK, and then open HomeGroup in Control Panel.
In some scenarios, even if the earlier created HomeGroup is recognized, users can’t leave or delete that. So how to overcome this problem? Well, here are some fixes you can try and see if they helps you.
FIX : Windows Can’t Set Up A HomeGroup On This Computer In Windows 10
FIX 1 – Start Peer Name Resolution Protocol Service
1. Press + R and type services.msc in the Run dialog box, hit Enter key to open Services snap-in.
2. Moving on, in the Services window, scroll down and look for the Peer Name Resolution Protocol service. Since you’re facing this problem, the service might not be running. Double click on the service.
3. In the service property sheet shown below, click Start. Hit Apply, OK.
Once you started this service, you can re-check the status of problem. It must be resolved by now, else refer FIX 2.
FIX 2 – Delete idstore.sst File Using File Explorer
In case if FIX 1 didn’t work for you, here is an alternative. It is also possible that while following FIX 1, you may not able to start Peer Name Resolution Protocol service and get this error instead:
Windows could not start the Peer Name Resolution Protocol service on Local Computer. Error code: 0x80630801.
Try following steps to specifically deal this issue now:
1. Press + E and navigate to following location in File Explorer:
C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking
* Substitute C: with your system root drive. AppData is hidden folder here.
2. In the File Explorer ribbon, switch to View tab and check File name extensions option. Then locate the idstore.sst file inside PeerNetworking folder. You have to delete this file. If you want to backup the file before deleting it, renaming it to something else, like idstore.old.sst.
Once the file is deleted, close File Explorer, reboot and the problem is gone away.
Here is the video to help you more:
Hope this helps! See this fix if HomeGroup Provider Service is not running on Windows.
