Windows 10: MS Edge does not connect to the internet.

MS Edge does not connect to the internet whilst MS Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox does.

:)

 

Only MS Edge allows connection to internet?

I'm a Windows 10 user with the same problem - suddenly only Edge can access the internet. Neither Outlook nor any of my other browsers can connect, even with my firewall turned off.

I have tried the suggested solutions above in this thread - namely I've run each of these commands in the Command Prompt as Administrator:

sfc /scannow

netsh winsock reset

netsh int ip reset

and rebooted. No change. Edge is still the only program that can connect to the internet.

What is the next step to a solution?

Thanks
