As the title says they have finally banished HomeGroup from W10 which has hopefully solved some minor networking issues I've had, that I made my own shortcut to fix previously.
Wont know if the new 1803 feature update has completely solved my issues yet, as my Lappy hasn't received the update yet & my PC only got it yesterday.
Just noticed in notifications that it had a message telling me that HomeGroup had been removed, cool I'll throw a party cause even though I haven't used it since W8 due to it failing miserably at it's job, it was causing some network hiccups. Here's hoping now that it's gone I can network peacefully.

Here's more info about what's changed and what hasn't.
What’s changed?

After you update your PC to Windows 10 (Version 1803):

  • HomeGroup won’t appear in File Explorer.
  • HomeGroup won’t appear in Control Panel, which means that you can’t create, join, or leave a homegroup.
  • HomeGroup won’t appear on the Troubleshoot screen when you go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot .
  • You won’t be able to share new files and printers using HomeGroup.

What hasn’t changed?

Any folder, files, printers that you previously shared using HomeGroup will continue to be shared. This means that:

  • Shared network folders will still be available. You can open them in File Explorer by typing the name of the PC and the shared folder name in this format: \\homePC\SharedFolderName.
  • If one user account was set up on a PC for sharing, you can continue using that one account for sharing.
  • You can still get to any shared printers through the Print dialog box.
