Windows 10: Windows 10 IPv4 Checksum Offload

I'm experiencing some odd phenomena with the IPv4 Checksum Offload on various Intel & Realtek NIC's for the past few months. The only way I can get rid of the yellow triangle over the network icon is to disable IPv4 Checksum Offload. It doesn't bother me that the triangle is there but it doesn't allow OneNote, OneDrive, O365, etc to sync or validate activation and after any Win10 update it's re-enabled .....


Is there a port I need to open on the firewall?

How to disable checksums on ethernet card in Windows 10?

• Open the Device Manager.
  
• Locate your network adapter.
  
• Right-click -> Properties.
  
• Advanced Tab.
  

What the options is called will vary based on the NIC manufacturer and may not even be available if the NIC's driver doesn't support it.

On my system (Realtek adapter) it's labelled "TCP Checksum Offload" and there's one for IPv4 and one for IPv6.





Other similar name: "Offload Transmit TCP Checksum".

Remote Desktop from Win10 -> Windows Server 2016 slow, but fast the other way around

I solved the latency issue: What really made the difference (for me) was to disable on both, the server and client side:

• IPv4 Checksum Offload
  
• Large Receive Offload
  
• Large Send Offload
  
• TCP Checksum Offload
  

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
