Windows 10: No Network Connection, Ethernet Controller and Network Controller were uninstalled, need help

Hi, apparently while I was trying to delete some drivers and install them again, I accidentally uninstalled the Ethernet Controller and the Network Controller drivers in the process.Now, I don't have any access to the internet.Unfortunately, I also don't have a USB Drive.I really need help on this issue. Is there any other way to solve this problem or must I buy another laptop?Windows Version : 8.1Laptop : Acer Aspire V5 473PG Quite an old laptop

Losing network connection

Hello Dear, if you have a laptop or a PC with a wireless network adapter, you can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks. The wireless networks will only appear if your PC has a wireless network adapter installed, the adapter is turned on, and the wireless access point is in range.

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.

2. In the left pane, under Network Tasks, click View available wireless networks.
In case, If you don't see the network you want to connect to, click Refresh network list. If you see the network but the signal is weak, move the PC closer to the wireless router.

3. Click the network you want to connect to, and then click Connect.

4. If you're connecting to a secure network, type the security key, and then click OK.

I Hope you solve out your query soon.

 

Why is ethernet connection set to "public network" in control panel

Windows 10 (home computer). Why is my ethernet connection set to "public network" and not "private network"? I noticed in my firewall settings it say public was connected and not private. Should I be worried and should I make it private?

 

Delete saved Ethernet Networks

Hello,

To delete unwanted network profiles, we can try doing it from the Control Panel first. Here are the steps:

• Search for Control Panel using the Cortana search box.
• On the upper right part of the Control Panel windows, type network.
• Under Network and Sharing Center, click View network connections.
• Right click on the unwanted network from the list on this window and select Delete.
  
• Once done deleting all the unwanted network connections, restart your PC.

Make sure that you are running the PC as the administrator before proceeding with the steps above.

Let us know how it goes.
