Microsoft Hosted Virtual Network Adapter is Missing

Hi Arthur,

There's a possibility that the Internet Connection Sharing is not enabled on your machine. To enable it, follow the steps below:

• Right-click the Windows key, then select Network Connections.
• Right-click the network adapter with an Internet connection (could be Ethernet or wireless network adapter), then select
  Properties.
• Click Sharing tab.
• Under Internet Connection Sharing, check the Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s Internet connection option.
  
• On the Home networking connection drop-down menu, select the
  Microsoft Hosted Virtual Adapter.
• Click OK to finish.

Update us with the result.

Regards.

 

microsoft hosted network virtual adapter

Hi Sayan,

I too, had uninstalled the Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter, since I was unable to create a hotspot from the computer. After restarting, I was hoping for the adapter to be visible/present in the device manager, as it happens when we
uninstall a USB Controller.

However, after restarting, the adapter is not seen in the Network adapters list, and also not found under the
Other list, as you suggested above. This was checked after enabling view for hidden devices. Also, there is
no yellow alert symbol near any adapter.

I have also restored the computer to an earlier restore point, but the adapter is still not seen !

Since, the Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter itself is not found in the list, there is no way to update the driver software for it.

Hotspot creation has worked for me many times since I've upgraded to Windows 10, and I need it to keep working as before.

Request you to help !

Thank you.

Also, Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter is not associated with a hardware, is it ?
