Windows 10: HOTSPOT not working and Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter not available in Windows 10

Dear Team,


I am not able to turn on the hotspot in Windows 10.


Searched few blogs and came to know about this one "NETSH WLAN SHOW DRIVERS".


In the below properties its shows that HOSTED NETWORK SUPPORTED is NO. Heard that hotspot will be working only if this option is enabled.


Any solution for this!!!

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 ?
