Windows 10: netsh interface ipv4 add dnsservers does not work on Windows 10

Command to admin-enabled CMD prompt:netsh interface ipv4 add dnsservers name="Ethernet" address=208.067.222.222 index=1gets error message "The parameter is incorrect"As far as I can tell, the syntax is correct. I have tried with and without item names. The instructions include precisely the same syntax.

How to reset whole netsh? (Windows 7)

Was wondering has the commands changed somehow since on Windows XP and on Windows Vista 'NETSH INT RESET ALL' cleaned entire netsh up from top to bottom.

Now on Windows 7 this same command says no go and only way I can see it is by building .cmd/.bat which does something like:

Code: netsh winsock reset all netsh int 6to4 reset all netsh int ipv4 reset all netsh int ipv6 reset all netsh int httpstunnel reset all netsh int isatap reset all netsh int portproxy reset all netsh int tcp reset all netsh int teredo reset all[/quote] now the king of the hill of bugs is this doesn't actually do even it's job even after reboot. values setup to are not reset to defaults. (I know I could add more entire list of entries there is, but looking for clean delete/wipe settings & default everything not to dump entire list of resets.)

So, anyone got a plan B?

Prefer ipv4 over ipv6

hi,

I want to set ipv4 to be preferred over ipv6, the other day i've used the tips from this Ping returns IPv6 Address, ping IPv4 in Command Prompt - TheITBros on my 2 windows10 computers and everything worked out great!

Now, i just did a win10 update and i noticed that that no longer works even by doing the very same "command" and it kinda gets ignored. Did they just remove the functionality?

This is what i get from netsh interface ipv6 show prefixpolicies (i don't get the longer list anymore but just these):





So it seems to be preferring ipv4, yet when i ping my site (available on both ipv4 and ipv6), i get output with ipv6, same as google.com - the other day it was working nicely to ipv4 and i only used these 2 commands they suggested:

netsh interface ipv6 set prefix ::/96 60 3

netsh interface ipv6 set prefix ::ffff:0:0/96 55 4

what's going on? I don't want to disable it completely (i know i can disable it from the router or from the network card properties, i just want to de-prioritise it)

[Version 10.0.19044.1387]

thank you,
Gabrio

might have answered myself, i've added

netsh interface ipv6 add prefixpolicy ::/0 40 1

and it did the trick... i wonder if it will stick now
