    Can't use any other browser than Edge.


    Hey guys! everything was fine with windows 10 since the beginning , except since last week. I cant connect to the internet with chrome or any other application using the internet ( steam, league of legends etc). I did some research but couldn't find something that worked.

    Thank you!

  2. Can't use any other browser than Edge.

    Hello, Vincent,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per description you are unable to use any browsers except Microsoft Edge.

    As you are able to use Microsoft Edge. I would suggest you to follow the methods to troubleshoot Internet Explorer.

    Method 1:

    Run Internet Explorer Performance Troubleshooter to diagnose the exact issue.

    Follow the steps mentioned below.


    • Press “Windows key + X”.

    • Select Control Panel

    • Select “Troubleshooting”.

    • Select “View all” option from the left panel.

    • Select “Internet Explorer performance”.

    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
    If the issue still exists, try the next method.

    Method 2:

    I would suggest you to check if some Add-on is causing the issue. You can refer to the following Microsoft article and check if it helps.


    • Press Windows key +R.

    • Type iexplore.exe –extoff and press enter.

    • Now, Internet explorer will be opened without any add on.

    • If you don’t get the error message while opening the browser in this mode, then probably an add-on is causing this issue.

    • Disable all the add-ons as
      described in the following article and figure out the corrupt add-on by enabling the add-ons one-by-one.
    Manage add-ons in Internet Explorer


    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance with Windows.

    Can't use any other browser than Edge.

    Hi, sorry to hear that. Are you using a laptop? A desktop? If you could complete your system specs, that would help. (Instructions in the tutorial section if you're unsure).

    How are you connected to the internet? Ethernet cable? WiFi?
    If you are using a router, can any other devices connect to that successfully?

    Since we don't know what state your internet connection is in, first right click the internet icon in your system tray, and Open Network and Sharing Centre. Please post a screenshot of that including your system tray internet icon.
    It should look sthg like this:

    Please right click the internet icon in your system tray again, click "Troubleshoot Problems" and report the outcome. Thanks.

    Do you know what changed last week that might have caused this?
    Do you have any system restore points before the date you first noticed this?
    Do you use disk imaging (which allows you to restore your PC to exactly how it was when you created the image and creates a backup at the same time)? Everyone needs to use this: Macrium Reflect or Aomei Backupper- freeware (+ commercial) - with their boot disk + large external backup storage medium.
