Windows 10: Use Network Reset


There may be broken links in this article, the GROK staff has been notified and is working to resolve the issue.

Network Reset can solve connection problems that might occur after upgrading versions or fix problems connecting to shared network drives. Reset removes all network adapters and adapter settings from your PC. After you restart your computer, any network adapters are reinstalled, and the settings re-enabled.

This should be your last resort.

NOTE: You must be running Windows 10 Version 1607. To see what version of Windows 10 you are operating, click Start | Settings  | System | About.
