Windows 10: Programs not connected to the Internet, but browsers work fine

Hello, for some reason my programs are not able to connect to the Internet. My Spotify says it is Offline, my Steam says it has no connection, as well as my other programs. I am currently using Chrome, but my Microsoft Edge also works perfectly fine. I do not have an Anti-Virus, I have already tried checking if my Internet is on a proxy server it isn't, as well as running these programs in CMD with Administrator Privilege:


ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log


I am running Windows 10 on an Ethernet cable. Please let me know if you need other information from me!

Ping works fine, but no Internet connection in browser

Without having changed any settings, I can't access the Internet anymore through my laptop running Windows 10. Every browser tells me the connection has timed out. I can connect to the router and other devices on the network are not affected. Windows tells me that I am "connected to the Internet" but apparently, that's no help. It doesn't seem to work through other WiFi networks or ethernet either.

ping google.com works fine and surfing by IP address does not help.
I tried restarting the computer, restarting the router, resetting IP configuration with no avail. I couldn't find a problem in the network settings either. I tried about anything suggested on this website.
I hope someone of you has any idea as to what could resolve the issue. Thanks.

Update

So it turns out I can access google websites such as google.com or youtube, but nothing else. I tried some of the suggestions I found online, but nothing worked. Ideas?

 

Browsers report no internet while ping works and windows reports connection

On my Windows 10 laptop from the browser (Chrome, Firefox, Waterfox, Edge) trying to access internet sites reports that it can't connect after a while, but ping works. Accessing local servers is fine. Accessing sites through an explicit local proxy in Waterfox also works.

After a reboot the browsers work for a bit, but then fail.

putty telnet seems to work fine.

I've already tried steps from:

Ping works fine, but no Internet connection in browser

I've done a wireshark and it shows that TCP connections are getting reset (RST packets from the machine as far as I can tell).

The machine has Sophos Anti-virus installed. MS Office also, but not much else.

EDIT:
I have now tried:

• Disabled the firewall - the problem still occurs.
  
• Tried Opera browser as well
  
• Tried wget from powershell - also reports the connection being reset, at the same time that the browsers are not working
  
• Tried Privoxy - also not working when browsers direct aren't working.
  
• Removed Sophos entirely in case that was causing the problem.
  
• Done a malware scan with Sophos Virus Removal Tool, which found nothing.
  
• Updated the wireless driver for the built-in wireless adapter.
  
• Tried a USB wireless driver.
  
• Tried a wired connection, which seemed to work, but maybe we didn't leave it long enough.
  
• Flushing the caches of Chrome, which appeared to work for a while.
  

Any ideas for how to get browsing working reliably?
