Done it. Didn't help. Might have another go though; just in case.

That said, I will probably end-up re-installing anyway. If nothing else it will get rid of all the extraneous crap I've installed and forgotten about

Remove it from the current workgroup - create a new one with a gash name...and then change it back it you wish.
