    File Explorer Stops Internet Connection


    When opening the file explorer for any reason all internet connection seizes and returns 10 seconds later observed in resource monitor. There's literally 4 instances of this problem on google and none have the solution. im using a usb nic but i doubt that has anything to do with my file explorer. either way, opening file explorer is an internet kill switch and i need help to stop that.


    ive tried


    - sfc

    - update drivers

    - update windows

    - uninstall drivers install old drivers


    thanks.

    :)

  3. No Internet connection, also Internet Explorer shows Runtime error on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    Please do let us know the following information to understand the issue and assist you better:

    • Are you able to connect to the internet using different browser?
    • Is this issue specific when accessing any particular website?
    • Have you updated all the drivers after upgrading to Windows 10?

    I would like to inform you that a runtime error is a software or hardware problem that prevents a program from working correctly. Runtime errors might cause you to lose information in the file you're working on, cause errors in the file (corrupt the file)
    so you can't work with it, or prevent you from using a feature. Unlike stop errors, runtime errors don't typically cause Windows or a program to stop working.

    Method 1: If the issue specific only to Internet Explorer, I suggest you to try the below and check if it helps:

    Step 1: I suggest you to run the Internet Explorer Performance troubleshooter.

    • Press Windows key, type troubleshooting
      and select it.
    • Click on View all in the left pane.
    • Click on Internet Explorer Performance and follow the onscreen instructions.

    Step 2: I suggest you to perform some of the troubleshooting steps from the link below link, Turn off add-ons, Reset Internet Explorer Settings, Open the page in Compatibility View etc. and check if it helps:

    What to do when Internet Explorer isn't working

    Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature. Also re-enable the add-ons..

    Method 2: Please refer to the below article for internet connectivity and check if you are able to connect.

    Wired
    and wireless network problems


    Note: Applies to Windows 10 as well.

    Hope it helps. Please do get back to us with the status of this issue. We will be happy to assist you further, if the issue still persist.

    File Explorer Stops Internet Connection

    Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?

    File Explorer Stops Internet Connection wie1.png


    Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
